MRI-Based Diagnosis of Elbow Liposarcoma: A Case Report and Review of Imaging Features and Differential Diagnoses

We report a case of a 73-year-old male with a 20-year history of a progressively enlarging mass on the anterior aspect of the right elbow. MRI findings suggest a voluminous fatty lesion with features compatible with a well-differentiated liposarcoma. This article discusses the imaging characteristics of liposarcoma at the elbow and outlines key differential diagnoses, integrating a review of the recent literature on soft tissue tumors of the elbow.

Abstract

We report a case of a 73-year-old male with a 20-year history of a progressively enlarging mass on the anterior aspect of the right elbow. MRI findings suggest a voluminous fatty lesion with features compatible with a well-differentiated liposarcoma. This article discusses the imaging characteristics of liposarcoma at the elbow and outlines key differential diagnoses, integrating a review of the recent literature on soft tissue tumors of the elbow.
