Abstract
The use of anti-tumour necrosis factor alpha
(anti-TNFα) therapies has increased over the
past few years. Concerns have been raised
about the theoretical increased risk of malignancy
in patients receiving these therapies.
We report a case of an extremely rare high
grade pleural based sarcoma in a patient with
rheumatoid arthritis and a 7-year history of
anti-TNFα therapy.
