Abstract

Liposarcoma is one of the most common primary neoplasms of the retroperitoneum. Mesenteric liposarcoma is rare and to the best of our knowledge only five cases of liposarcoma of the mesocolon have been reported in the English literature. The objective of this article is to represent a large well-differentiated liposarcoma of the sigmoid mesocolon (50×40×10 cm) in a 35-year-old man. Based on Medline search this case is the largest case of liposarcoma of the sigmoid mesocolon reported in a relatively young patient.
