Proximal type of epithelioid sarcoma is a rare variant which arises in deep locations such as pelvis and perineal soft tissue. It affects the middle aged to elderly and is more commonly seen in males. This entity needs to be recognized as it has a wide spectrum of differential diagnosis. Here, we discuss a case of proximal epithelioid sarcoma which presented as a large intraperitoneal multinodular mass with a radiologic impression of peritoneal sarcomatosis.
