Perineal myxoid liposarcoma: report of a case and literature review

Liposarcomas are rare soft tissue tumour, with an incidence of 30 cases per million population. The myxoid liposarcoma (MLS) consists of 45 – 55% of these tumours, making it the most common subtype. MLS commonly involves the thigh and retroperitoneum but relatively rare in the perineum or pararecta...
