Gastric liposarcoma. A case report.

Gastric localization of a liposarcoma is exceptional. A 67 year old patient with repeated hematemesis was found to have an ulcer on the dorsal wall of the antrum on radiology. Surgery revealed an ulcerated tumour, 5 X 2 X 1.5 cm, involving the tunica muscularis up to the serosa. Histologic examination showed a liposarcoma with intricate myxomatous zones, round cells, pleomorphous clearly differentiated lipoblastic aspects, and haemorrhagic areas.
