Discussion

Implication

Wide margins yielded zero local recurrences; leaves open optimal nonpulmonary surveillance protocols in this rare sarcoma.

Structured PICO

Population

43 patients with myxoid liposarcoma of the extremities and trunk wall who underwent resections from 1983 to 2015, mean age 48.6 years.

Intervention

Resection (wide or marginal)

Outcome

Local control rate, metastatic pattern, and survival (overall and recurrence-free)hard clinical

Patients with myxoid liposarcoma have a good prognosis but a distinct pattern of nonpulmonary metastatic disease, warranting specific imaging for staging and follow-up.
