Definition
A malignant neoplasm characterized by the chromosomal translocation t(X;18)(p11;q11) that is classified as monophasic (with a spindle or epithelial cell component), biphasic (with both spindle and epithelial cell components), or poorly differentiated (with poorly differentiated morphological features and absence of spindle cells). It can occur at any age, but mainly affects young adults, more commonly males. Although any site can be affected, the vast majority of the cases arise in the deep soft tissues of extremities, especially around the knee.

Key figures
Each figure carries its unit, period and source; ranks link to "Why this rank?".
No registry-level ancestor: burden figures are published for the mutually exclusive top-level site groups only, and this entity does not descend from one. Global figures (IARC / GLOBOCAN) stay under license review and SEER awaits credentials.
