  • Title: Transperineal resection of a retroperitoneal liposarcoma presenting as a perineal mass.
    Author: Wagner M, Vanderlee MG, Freeman J, Black ME.
    Journal: Obstet Gynecol; 2005 May; 105(5 Pt 2):1256-8. PubMed ID: 15863601.
    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: Liposarcomas can present as giant liposarcomas in the retroperitoneal position. CASE: A healthy woman presented with a large recurrent proboscis-type mass at the left gluteus and underwent a transperineal resection of the mass. The patient tolerated the procedure well and was discharged after a short hospitalization. CONCLUSION: Once invasion into adjacent structures has been ruled out, a transperineal resection of giant retroperitoneal liposarcomas can be performed.
