Dedifferentiated liposarcoma of the extremities: a Korean multi-center study of 107 cases
This is the largest study examining DDL-E to-date. Localized DDL-E has low potential for metastasis and carries an excellent prognosis. Other primary malignancy and extrapulmonary metastasis are more frequent in DDL-E, thus close monitoring of other sites during follow-up is recommended. While wide resection margin is the standard surgical approach for DDL-E, further investigation into moderated wide resection margin at the well-differentiated component is warranted.
