The authors report the case of a hemangiopericytoma arising in a sciatic nerve. It was found to be invasive within the epineurium but sparing surrounding tissues. Adequate resection required sacrifice of the nerve. Hemangiopericytomas can be added to the short list of mesodermal peripheral-nerve tumors.
