Adama Hospital Medical College, Adama, Ethiopia.
Article Synopsis
- * A case study of a 36-year-old woman showed she had worsening shortness of breath and swelling, leading to a diagnosis of a large anterior mediastinal mass that was successfully surgically removed.
- * The significance of this case highlights the need for early diagnosis of mediastinal liposarcoma in patients with respiratory symptoms, as prompt treatment can greatly improve patient outcomes.

Objective: To identify trends in apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) measurements from diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) with respect to tumor type classification and other tumor characteristics whether common malignant soft tissue tumors can be distinguished.
Materials And Methods: A consecutive series of extremity malignant soft tissue tumors and soft tissue sarcomas (STS) among 78 adult patients with conventional MRI and DWI were included. Each case was evaluated with respect to T1/T2 signal alterations and heterogeneity, presence of peritumoral edema, necrosis, cystic changes, internal hemorrhage, and maximum longitudinal dimension blinded to the histology.
MicroRNAs as Potential Biomarkers in the Differential Diagnosis of Lipomatous Tumors and Their Mimics.

Adipocytic tumors are the most common subtype of soft tissue tumors. In current clinical practice, distinguishing benign lipomas from well-differentiated liposarcomas (WDLPS), as well as dedifferentiated liposarcomas (DDLPS) from their morphologic mimics, remains a significant diagnostic challenge. This is especially so when examining small biopsy samples and without the aid of additional ancillary tests.
