Inflammatory liposarcoma is one of the rarest subtypes of well-differentiated liposarcoma. We present an extremely rare case of well-differentiated inflammatory liposarcoma that occurs in the muscularis of the gallbladder, which was difficult to diagnose before surgery due to the lack of specific clinical and imaging findings. Since cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) and murine double minute 2 (MDM2) both displayed amplification in this case, they are not only important markers for auxiliary diagnosis but also the focus of current targeted therapy.

Article Synopsis
  • * A total of 13 cases were reviewed, revealing that EEA was the primary technique used for most tumors, particularly those located near the optic nerve, with additional approaches (TOA and EMMM) employed as needed for extraconal tumors.
  • * The results showed an 80% gross-total resection rate and a 69.2% improvement in visual function after surgery, indicating that the combined surgical methods are both safe

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor and liposarcoma very rarely present as tumors of the chest wall. Never have both been reported together in the same lesion. We present a case wherein a 72-year-old man with a rapidly progressing lesion initially mistaken for a local infection underwent resection with diagnosis of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor.

Article Synopsis
  • Biopolymers are synthetic materials used as fillers but are not compatible with the body, potentially leading to adverse reactions and conditions known as foreign-body-induced human adjuvant disease.
  • A study conducted in Bogotá, Colombia, involved 20 patients who had biopolymer removal surgeries, revealing significant inflammatory responses and signs that could complicate diagnosis, like cytoplasmic vacuolization in reactive adipocytes.
  • It is advised that surgeons measure certain blood markers (lactate dehydrogenase, serum calcium, and parathyroid hormone) to evaluate complications, and that removing biopolymers surgically may help prevent further issues.
