Abstract: 【Abstract】 Soft tissue tumors are relatively rare, and their diagnosis remains challenging. Advanced molecular genetic techniques have significantly accelerated the understanding of tumor pathogenesis. As a result, a multitude of novel tumor entities and subtypes have been identified. To deepen dermatologists' understanding of these entities, this article focuses on several recently reported cutaneous soft tissue tumors and their subtypes, presenting their clinical manifestations, histological and immunophenotypic features, genetic characteristics, and differential diagnoses.
