Soft tissue myoepitheliomas are often misdiagnosed due to their rarity. Herein, we describe a case of soft tissue myoepithelioma of the shoulder. A 72-year-old woman had a suspected sarcoma on her shoulder and under-went open biopsy. She was referred to our hospital, where the tumor was widely resected and the diagnosis of myoepithelioma was histologically confirmed. No recurrence has been observed in the 3 years since the sur-gery. Careful and prompt planning is necessary for the effective treatment of myoepithelioma.
软组织肌上皮瘤由于其罕见性，常被误诊。本文描述了一例肩部软组织肌上皮瘤。一名 72 岁女性肩部有疑似肉瘤，行开放性活组织检查。她被转诊至我院，肿瘤广泛切除，组织学诊断为肌上皮瘤。手术后 3 年未观察到复发。为了有效治疗肌上皮瘤，需要仔细和及时的计划。
