Abstract

Liposarcoma is the most common soft tissue sarcoma in adults, which usually involves lower extremities, trunk, retroperitoneum, or abdominal cavity. Till date, only a few cases of enormously huge liposarcoma have been reported. We report a case of huge mass of size 60 × 45 × 35 cm in scapular region in a middle aged person; which developed from a preexisting lipoma and was gradually increased in size as sub-mucosal non-ulcerated mass and which ultimately become ulcerated and infected with gas forming organisms. This tumor was successfully resected in toto under general anesthesia and after follow up to two years no recurrence was reported.
