Myxoid liposarcoma of sigmoid mesocolon: a case report and review of the literature
Primary myxoid liposarcoma of the mesocolon is extremely rare, with this case representing only the fifth reported instance. Review of the literature indicates that complete surgical resection is the cornerstone of management, while the role of adjuvant radiotherapy or chemotherapy remains controversial. Reporting additional cases is essential to improve understanding, refine prognostic assessment, and guide the development of evidence-based treatment strategies.
