摘要

Primary mesenteric liposarcoma is a rare malignant tumor of mesenchymal origin (1,2,3,4). These tumors are often found to be of substantial size upon diagnosis. We report a case of primary mesenteric liposarcoma that weighed approximately 8.5 kilograms. To our knowledge, this is only the seventeenth case of mesenteric liposarcoma reported in the English literature to date (2,3,5,6,7) as well as the largest ever reported in the mesentary. Takagi et al (4) has previously reported a case of a 40 kilogram liposarcoma, however this tumor was located in the retroperitoneum. Case Report The patient was a 69 year old white male who noticed blood present in his urine approximately six weeks before presentation to the surgeon. He also reported feeling bloated and complained of increasing abdominal distention over the past year. He denied any abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, fever, chills, nightsweats, hematochezia, or melena. He reported a five-pound weight loss over the past year, despite his increasing abdominal girth. During the investigation of his hematuria by urology a CT scan was ordered which showed multiple large masses filling the pelvis and abdomen with sizes ranging from 15 to 20 centimeters in size [figure 1]. The lesions were of relatively low density and suggested collections of mucin or complex fluid. Multiple calcific areas were also present within the lesions. No pancreatic mass was noted, nor did the lesions appear connected to the pancreas. Lucencies of undetermined etiology were also reported in both the liver and kidneys. Finally, the CT scan also showed the presence of a large hiatal hernia. Upon evaluation of the CT scan, the patient was referred to the surgeon for treatment.
