[Combined operations by retroperitoneal liposarcomas].

Retrospective analysis of 228 patients with retroperitoneal liposarcoma, operated on in the Russian Oncology Center during 1971-2010, has been done. Of 223 performed operations, 124 were combined, i.e., required multi-organ resection. The kidney was the most frequently removed organ both in cases of primary and recurrent tumors. 10-year survival rate was 26% after combined operations and 35% after surgery, they did not need the multiorgan resection.
