Abstract

Clear Cell Sarcoma Like tumor of Gastrointestinal Tract (CCSLGT) is a rare malignant neoplasm described in stomach, small intestine, and large intestine, with a high predilection for small intestine. It has its own unique histology, immune-phenotype, clinical behavior, and molecular characteristics which distinguishes it from other sarcomas/carcinomas in gastrointestinal system. Due to its rarity, only limited studies have been performed in the literature. Moreover, its histogenesis is uncertain till now. A rare case of CCSLGT which occurred in ileum of an elderly woman has been presented here with a short review of its histogenesis.

Keywords: Clear cell sarcoma, Melanoma, S- 100, Ileum.
