Abstract:
We report a case of retroperitoneal liposarcoma mimicking lipoma which was found on follow-up studies in a 67-year old man with stomach cancer. Preoperative computerized tomography of abdomen and biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of right retroperitoneal liposarcoma, which was treated with surgery and radiation therapy.
