We present a case of well-differentiated liposarcoma (WDL) involving the right proximal arm and axilla in a 66-year-old Filipino male. The patient first noticed the lesion 18 years ago, and it subsequently slowly progressed in size. MR and CT imaging interpreted the lesion as likely being a WDL, a diagnosis that was confirmed by histology.

Cost-effectiveness analysis of eribulin versus dacarbazine in patients with advanced liposarcoma.

A subgroup analysis of a randomized study demonstrated that patients with advanced or metastatic liposarcoma treated with eribulin had longer overall survival and progression-free survival compared to those treated with dacarbazine, suggesting eribulin as a therapeutic option for advanced liposarcoma. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of eribulin versus dacarbazine in the treatment of advanced liposarcoma. We established a 10-year Markov model to compare the cost-effectiveness of eribulin and dacarbazine regimens.

Soft tissue sarcomas (STSs) are rare malignancies, with retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcoma (RPS) constituting 10%-15% of all STSs. RPS often presents late due to minimal early symptoms, typically requiring complete en-bloc resection for optimal survival outcomes. Achieving radical resection can be challenging due to the tumor's proximity to vital organs.

The aim of this study is to elucidate the disparities in survival and risk factors among different subtypes of liposarcoma, through analysis of epidemiological and prognostic data. The study cohort consisted of 12,822 patients diagnosed with liposarcoma in the United States between 2000 and 2021, whose data were retrieved from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) program. The prognosis for different subtypes of liposarcoma and the associated factors such as age, tumor stage, intervention, gender, tumor grade, location, size, chemotherapy and radiotherapy, were retrieved from the database.

An aggressive angiomyxoma (AA) is a rare soft tissue neoplasm of the lower female genital tract. The incidence of vaginal involvement is low, so it is commonly misdiagnosed as a Bartholin cyst, lipoma, and abscess, among others. This is a case of a 31-year-old female patient presenting with anterior vaginal wall swelling measuring 1 x 1 cm, clinically diagnosed as vaginal carbuncle.
