Lipomatous tumors range from benign lipomas to high‐grade liposarcomas. Liposarcomas are classified into five histologic subtypes: well‐differentiated, dedifferentiated, myxoid, round cell, and pleomorphic, which differ in outcomes and patterns of recurrence. Surgical resection is the mainstay of curative treatment; however, large, high grade liposarcomas may benefit from multimodality treatment with chemotherapy and radiation. A histologic‐subtype specific nomogram provides accurate survival… CONTINUE READING
