Primary liposarcoma of the orbit is a rare tumour. There are very few cases of orbital liposarcoma reported in the literature, mostly of the myxoid variety. In this paper, the authors report the clinical presentation, histopathological features, results of diagnostic studies and management of a case of orbital low grade myxoliposarcoma with local recurrence, together with a review of the literature.

Background: Soft-tissue sarcoma involving the popliteal fossa remains challenging because it is difficult to achieve wide margins with limb salvage in this location. Adjuvant therapy is frequently necessary, and limb function can be adversely affected. We reviewed our experience with these tumors.

Objective: To investigate imaging biomarkers of tumour response by describing changes in imaging and pathology findings after neoadjuvant radiotherapy (nRT) and exploring their correlations.
Materials And Methods: Tumour diameter, volume, and tumour-to-muscle signal intensity (SI) ratio were collected before and after radiotherapy in a cohort of 107 patients with intermediate/high-grade STS and were correlated with post-radiotherapy pathology findings (percentage of necrosis, viable cells, and fibrosis) using Spearman Rank test. Pathological complete response (pCR) was defined as no residual viable cells present, whereas the presence of < 10% viable cells was defined as near-complete pathologic response (near-pCR).

Background: Retroperitoneal liposarcoma (RPLS) is the most common soft tissue sarcoma originating in the retroperitoneal space. Although surgery is the standard treatment, recurrence remains frequent. In this study, we aimed to explore the safety and efficacy of total (ipsilateral) retroperitoneal lipectomy (TRL) compared to traditional complete resection (CR) for primary RPLS.

Background: In 2023 and 2024, a wide variety of new studies have been published in the field of soft tissue sarcomas, representing the enormous heterogeneity of sarcoma histotypes, anatomical location, treatment variability, and biological behavior.
Patients And Methods: This article summarizes the, in our view, seven most important publications in the field that will have an impact on the surgical practice and future treatment strategies of our patients.
Results: In the last year, we gained more insight in the genetic background of patients with sarcoma from a large Australian study, which will have an impact on future counseling and screening of our patients.

Malignant psoas syndrome is caused by a malignant tumor infiltrating the psoas muscle and is characterized by severe pain. Currently, no definitive diagnostic or therapeutic approaches have been established for this condition. Although multiple medications are often used for pain relief, pain management can often be challenging, and there are various treatment options.
