Myxoid liposarcoma of bladder: a rare case.

Abstract Introduction Myxoid liposarcoma of the bladder is a rare mesenchymal tumor which is difficult to diagnose and carries a poor prognosis. The primary treatment is complete surgical resection which is usually followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. Presentation of case We report a case of 26 years female who presented with a large abdominal mass and was initially misdiagnosed to be arising from ovaries and subsequently discovered to be a mesenchymal tumor arising from the bladder. Discussion Myxoid liposarcoma is an exceedingly rare but aggressive mesenchymal tumor of the bladder often with misleading imaging appearances. Conclusion Surgical resection, when feasible, plays the leading role in its management, and should be attempted in all potential patients.
