An Inflammatory Variant of Well-differentiated Liposarcoma of back - A Case Report on the Rare Entity

Abstract

Lipoma is a slow-growing and usually harmless swelling of the subcutaneous tissue. They are rarely cancerous. They commonly occur in the neck, shoulder, back, abdomen, arms and thighs. Liposarcoma is a rare tumour derived from fat tissue, which accounts for 2% of all tumours. The severity of Liposarcoma is based on the subtype and the presenting stage of the primary tumour. It can arise from any location of the body, but occurring in the back is rare. This case report describes a case of an inflammatory variant of well-differentiated liposarcoma of the back presenting as Lipo - ma.
