Popis:	Liposarcoma constitutes an uncommon and locally aggressive malignancy. We performed a retrospective analysis of 4 patients with histologically proven liposarcoma seen at our institution between 2013 and 2014. All patients underwent either complete surgical resection or debulking surgery. Histological analysis revealed the following subtypes: Well differentiated liposarcoma, well differentiated liposarcoma with myxoid dedifferentiation, Dedifferentiated liposarcoma with myxoid and osteosarcomatous elements and Myxoid dedifferentiation in a case of INTRODUCTION: Liposarcoma is a malignant tumor of mesenchymal origin. The name liposarcoma implies not that the tumor is derived from fat, but merely the bulk of the tumor tissue has differentiated into adipose tissue. After malignant fibrous histiocytoma, liposarcoma is the second most common soft tissue sarcoma encountered in adults. Most patients with liposarcoma present in 5th and 6th decades. Liposarcomas are usually located in the extremities and in the retroperitoneum. Here we report 4 cases of retroperitoneal liposarcomas with correlative histological diagnosis.
