Abstract
Liposarcoma of the breast constitutes 1% of all malignant breast tumors. We report the case of a 42-year-old woman presented with a 5 cm-mass in the left breast. Mammography, ultrasonography and MRI showed a non-specific appearance and the histological evaluation was necessary for definitive diagnosis.
