Liposarcomas are the most common soft tissue sarcoma of adults, and primary mediastinal liposarcomas are rare. We present a case of a 50-year-old man with primary mediastinal liposarcoma without any invasion into the surrounding structures, such as the esophagus, trachea, or left atrium of the heart. Following surgical removal of the liposarcoma, the patient has had no recurrence after one year. Surgical removal is the treatment of choice for a mediastinal liposarcoma; however, careful long-term follow-up is necessary because the recurrence rate is very high.
脂肪肉瘤是成人最常见的软组织肉瘤,而原发性纵隔脂肪肉瘤较为罕见。我们报告一例50岁男性原发性纵隔脂肪肉瘤患者,该肿瘤未侵犯周围结构,如食管、气管或心脏左心房。手术切除脂肪肉瘤后,患者一年来未复发。手术切除是纵隔脂肪肉瘤的首选治疗方法;然而,由于复发率很高,需要进行仔细的长期随访。
