%X Introduction: Soft tissue tumors represent diagnostic challenge to general practicing pathologists because of overlap in morphologic features. The usual approach is to diagnose by presumed cell lineage. A major utility of immunohistochemistry is to identify a tumor being mesenchymal or nonmesenchymal and once mesenchymal lineage has been confirmed, histologic sub typing according to specific lineage may be achieved with help of lineage specific markers.
