vulvar liposarcoma is rare and there are only eleven cases reported since 1966.primary sarcoma of the vulva constitutes 1-2% of all vulvar malignancies.Because of their locations and appearance,they may be easily mistaken as bening lesions.this is a report of a 65-years-old wite a vulvar mass similar to a lipoma.the lesion,a soft tissue mass,was totally excised and was sent for pathologic study...

Liposarcoma arising from the mesentery of the bowel is a rare lesion. Some of the most common presenting symptoms of primary mesenteric liposarcoma is increasing abdominal girth, weight loss, abdominal pain, abdominal discomfort with meals and the presence of a freely movable abdominal mass or masses. Our patient presented with a large intra-abdominal mass. Diagnostic laparoscopy revealed tumor...

Myxoid liposarcoma is a subtype of liposarcoma. This specific subtype can be identified based on its characteristic histological and cytogenetical features. The tumor has a fusion transcript of the CHOP and TLS genes, which is caused by t(12;16)(q13;p11). Most of the fusion transcripts that have been identified fall into three categories, specifically type I (exons 7-2), type II (exons 5-2), an...

Primary liposarcoma of the lung is an extremely rare disease. To date, only 14 cases have been reported in the literature. We experienced a case of myxoid liposarcoma of the lung treated by surgery. The tumor was well-defined, solid, lobulated mass measuring 3.5×2 cm, involving the bronchus of the left lower lobe. Microscopically, myxoid liposarcoma was identified. The fluorescence in situ hybr...

Liposarcoma is the second most common soft tissue sarcoma in adults.1 It is extremely uncommon in the pediatric age group. Although many cases so diagnosed in children in the past are in reality examples of lipoblastomatosis,2 several indubitable cases of liposarcoma have been recorded in adolescents and children.3-5 In children under ten years of age, it is extremely rare.6 Majority of liposar...

Liposarcomas are the most common soft tissue sarcoma of adults, and primary mediastinal liposarcomas are rare. We present a case of a 50-year-old man with primary mediastinal liposarcoma without any invasion into the surrounding structures, such as the esophagus, trachea, or left atrium of the heart. Following surgical removal of the liposarcoma, the patient has had no recurrence after one year...

Liposarcoma is regarded as the second most common soft tissue malignant tumour. Metastasis of liposarcoma to the heart is very rare, and to date, less than 40 cases have been reported in the literature. We report a 46 year-old male with myxoid liposarcoma of the lower extremity who developed extensive metastasis to the left ventricle, pulmonary artery, and pericardium. The patient presented wit...

Spermatic Cord Liposarcoma are uncommon soft tissue neoplasm. Association with others tumors is so exceptional. We describe and relation between liposarcoma and prostate cancer in a 66 years old patient who had a left paratesticular tumor with low speed growth and 12 cm of length; nodule in prostate gland was detected. Ecography demostrate an hipoecoic tumor in the spermatic cord; Prostate Spec...

Liposarcoma is one of the most common soft tissue sarcomas occurring in adults, but it rarely occurs in the gastrointestinal tract and more uncommonly in the esophagus. To the best of our knowledge, there are only 19 reported cases of esophageal liposarcoma in the literature published in English language up to the year 2008, and they were all treated by surgical methods. Here, we report a case ...

Retroperitoneal liposarcoma is a rare solid tumour of mesenchymal origin with an incidence of 2.5 per million population. We report what is, to the best of our knowledge, the first case in the English literature of retroperitoneal liposarcoma in an adult patient with Down syndrome. The tumour was surgically resected with no use of adjuvant chemotherapy or radiation. No recurrence was found at f...
