The chest wall consists of soft tissues, cartilage and bones. A large part of the masses originates from soft tissue. Chest wall tumours constitute 5% of thoracic and less than 1% of all primary tumours; 40% and 60% are malignant. Tumours may originate primarily in the chest wall and metastasize to or extend into it via local invasion from adjacent structures. Morbidity and mortality are specific to the particular tumour type. We report a case of a 42-year-old male with complaints of a painful lump on the right chest wall, which, after surgical removal, showed spindle cell sarcoma stage 2. Primary Spindle Cell Sarcoma (SCS) is an extremely rare entity and one of the least reported tumours. It is a type of connective tissue tumour that generally begins in layers of connective tissue under the skin, between muscles and surrounding organs. Only a handful of cases have been reported around the world from a variety of body parts.
