Abstract

Retroperitoneal liposarcoma is reported to comprise 12 to 43 per cent of all liposarcomas that are about one-fourth of all the soft part sarcomas. Because of its early silent rapid growth and wide spread, there have been difficulties in early diagnosis and wide en-bloc excision in the retroperitoneum. Herein a case of huge retroperitoneal liposarcoma in a 41-year-old male is presented with a brief review of the literatures.
