This case report presents a 69-year-old male patient with a subcutaneous tumour in the left parietal region. Initially, the tumour was identified as a lipoma or benign cyst by the general practitioner. However, a subsequent MRI scan revealed a sarcoma metastasis with a significant intracranial component. Radical excision of the tumour was not possible due to its critical localisation. Therefore, the patient received palliative radiotherapy. This case emphasises the importance of accurate clinical assessment and highlights the clinical features that should lead to suspicion of malignancy.
