Examples of this entity have been reported in many organ systems including the skin (Prive et al 1961, Curran & Dodge 1962, Young & Gardner 1964, Lira & Maranhao 1965, Tauimura & Furuta 1966, Brinton et al 1970, Mehrotra et al 1971, Dawson 1972). The following case of carcinosarcoma arising in the skin represents the second such reported case.…”
