Key result
Large tumor size (>10 cm) and low histological grade were significantly associated with extrapulmonary metastasis in patients with myxoid/round cell liposarcoma (P=0.028 and P=0.027, respectively).

In myxoid/round cell liposarcoma, large tumor size and low histological grade are significantly associated with extrapulmonary metastasis.
Asano et al. (2012) conducted an observational in Myxoid/round cell liposarcoma (MRCL) (n=58). Tumor size and histological grade was evaluated on Metastatic patterns (extrapulmonary vs pulmonary metastasis) (p=0.028). Large tumor size (>10 cm) and low histological grade were significantly associated with extrapulmonary metastasis in patients with myxoid/round cell liposarcoma (P=0.028 and P=0.027, respectively).
