Soft tissue swellings are growths which can be seen anywhere over the body, which can range from growth of the skin cells, subcutaneous mass, growth from the muscles, or the bones. Soft tissue tumours can emerge anywhere in the body from tendons, muscle, ligaments, cartilage, nerves, blood vessels, fat or other tissues. They can be benign or malignant (sarcomas). In this case report we have discussed a case of right thigh swelling, its management and its diagnosis. The histopathology examination revealed it to be a spindle cell carcinoma.
