Giant Retroperitoneal Liposarcoma.

ABSTRACT

Liposarcoma, the most common type of retroperitoneal tumor, usually presents late with average weight of 15-20 kg, mostly in men. Surgery is considered to be gold standard even in giant retroperitoneal liposarcomas. We report a case of 65 year old man with a giant retroperitoneal liposarcoma and show that large tumor size is not necessarily a contraindication to surgical resection.
