Context: Treatment of Tumors of Uncertain Differentiation / Clear Cell Sarcoma NOS

The tumor most commonly affects the lower extremity, particularly the foot, heel, and ankle.[85,86] It has a high propensity for nodal dissemination, especially metastases to regional lymph nodes (12%–43%).[86,87]

Source links and citations

The tumor typically has an indolent clinical course. Patients who have small, localized tumors with low mitotic rate and intermediate histological grade have the best outcomes.[88]
