May support emergency resection in rare synchronous metastases; leaves open questions on long-term outcomes and optimal strategies.
Case Report (n=1)
Synchronous cardiac and abdominal metastases of myxoid liposarcoma are extremely rare but can be successfully managed with emergency surgical resection.
Lazopoulos et al. (2011) conducted a case report in Metastatic myxoid liposarcoma (n=1). Emergency sternotomy and laparotomy for tumor resection was evaluated on Tumor resection. Emergency sternotomy and subsequent laparotomy successfully resected synchronous cardiac and abdominal metastatic myxoid liposarcomas in a 63-year-old man.
