RL Font, S Jurco III, LE Zimmerman - Human pathology, 1982 - Elsevier
This is a clinicopathologic study of 17 cases of alveolar soft-part sarcoma of the orbit. The
mean age of patients was 23 and the median was 18 (range, 11 months to 69 years); 13
patients (76.5 per cent) were women and four were men (ratio, 3.25: 1). The right and left
orbits were equally involved (eight patients each), and in one the laterality was not specified.
Histologically, the tumors had a distinctive organoid pattern outlined by thin-walled
capillaries and were composed of nests of large polyhedral cells with abundant, finely …
