Abstract
Retroperitoneal liposarcoma is a rare tumor in children and has been reported previously on only three occasions. This is the fourth such case, presenting with a large mass on the left side which displaced the sigmoid and ureters to the right. The patient was treated with surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy. She is alive and well more than four years after therapy was instituted. A review of the pertinent literature cites the need for radio- and chemotherapy especially when surgical removal is incomplete.Entities:
