Giant "Lipoma-like" Liposarcoma of the Retroperitoneum: A Case Report

A giant retroperitoneal liposarcoma that incorporated the descending colon was presented clinically as a palpable abdominal mass in a 37-year-old male patient. Complete surgical resection with adjacent partial colectomy was performed. Total tumor mass was 10.7 kg and pathological examination revealed well differentiated ("lipoma-like") liposarcoma. Literature review shows that aggressive surgical resection remains the mainstay of treatment for retroperitoneal liposarcoma, although there are some promising results that support the use of adjuvant combination chemotherapy in advanced metastatic disease.
