Prediction of Recurrence-Free and Overall Survival in Retroperitoneal Well-Differentiated and Dedifferentiated Liposarcoma After Surgery.

This study was aimed at creating an effective model for predicting the course of the disease in retroperitoneal well-differentiated (WDLPS) and dedifferentiated (DDLPS) liposarcomas after surgery. The study included 111 patients with WDLPS and 74 patients with DDLPS. We developed a methodology for stratification of patients into prognostic groups.

Retroperitoneal Liposarcoma: Rational Extent of Surgery Tailored to Grade of Malignancy.

This study was aimed at determining the indications for combined and organ-preserving operations. The study included 190 patients with retroperitoneal liposarcoma (RLPS). The influence of the following factors on the overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) were studied: involvement of adjacent organs in the tumor, volume of surgical intervention.

TNM classification of malignant tumors: Eighth edition for retroperitoneal liposarcoma. Ways to improve.

Aim: This study was aimed at assessing the prognostic significance of the "TNM: Classification of Malignant Tumors" eighth edition (TNM8) in the most common retroperitoneal tumors - liposarcoma.

Methods: The study included 192 patients with retroperitoneal liposarcoma (RLPS). The distribution of patients by stages and survival in accordance with the TNM8 were studied.
