Successful resection of a huge mediastinal liposarcoma extended to the bilateral thorax.
Liposarcoma arising in the mediastinum is extremely rare. Herein we present a case of a 47-year-old man with a huge posterior mediastinal tumor that extended to the bilateral thorax. The patient underwent a complete resection of the tumor and experienced an uneventful recovery. Postoperative pathology finally revealed liposarcoma. The patient underwent follow-up for 25 months, during which time...
متن کاملHuge mediastinal liposarcoma resected by clamshell thoracotomy: a case report
BACKGROUND Liposarcoma is the single most common soft tissue sarcoma. Because mediastinal liposarcomas often grow rapidly and frequently recur locally despite adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy, they require complete excision. Therefore, the feasibility of achieving complete surgical excision must be carefully considered. We here report a case of a huge mediastinal liposarcoma resected via ...

The pa− tient declined surgery. A loop was placed from the tip to the base of the peduncula− ted tumor ne...
متن کاملMassive, well-differentiated liposarcoma of the axilla.
We present a case of well-differentiated liposarcoma (WDL) involving the right proximal arm and axilla in a 66-year-old Filipino male. The patient first noticed the lesion 18 years ago, and it subsequently slowly progressed in size. MR and CT imaging interpreted the lesion as likely being a WDL, a diagnosis that was confirmed by histology.
متن کاملSuccessful Resection of a Large Incidentally Found Primary Mediastinal Liposarcoma
Primary liposarcoma of the mediastinum is an uncommon tumour. We report a case of a 45-year-old female who was found incidentally to have a large anterior mediastinal mass. Complete removal of the tumour was accomplished successfully. Appropriate immunohistochimical stains were performed, confirming the presence of a well-differentiated liposarcoma of the mediastinum. We describe an unusual cas...
