    Background: Pelvic retroperitonealliposarcomas are rare tumors of mesenchymal origin. We present a case of a giant pelvic wclldiffcrentiated liposarcoma of the retroperitoneum in a woman. presenting ... with a large abdominal mass. Case: A 62-year-old woman presented with arapid abdominal enlargement. Pelvic examination revealed a huge mass occupying the whole pelvis and part of the right abdomen. At surgery. the pelvic organs were displaced to the right side by a retroperitoneal mass that margirially involved the part of the posterior abdorninal wall, Jeft parietal peritoneum of the diaphragm, left colic f1exureand the Jeft adnexa. The huge mass, uterus, and both adnexa were removed; hemicolectomy and latero-Iateral anastomosis were carried out. No adjuvant irradiation was given. The patient is alive and free of disease five years after the operation. COl/elusion: The gynecologist should consider retroperitonealliposarcoma in the differential diagnosis of large pelvic or abdominal masses.
