==Liposarcoma==
==Liposarcoma==
===General===
{{Main|Liposarcoma}}
*Most common malignant sarcoma in the retroperitoneum.
*Not all (large) retroperitoneal adipocytic tumours are liposarcomas.
 
Notes:
*Retroperitoneal sarcomas: #1: liposarcoma, #2: [[pleomorphic undifferentiated sarcoma]], #3: leiomyosarcoma, #4: [[MPNST]].
**Extremely rare in retroperitoneum: [[synovial sarcoma]].
 
===Microscopic===
Features:
*Lipoblasts - '''key feature'''.
**Large sharply demarcated vacuole.
**Nucleus:
***Hyperchromatic (dark staining) nucleus.
***Eccentric location.
***Nuclear indentation.
*Chicken wire-like vascular.
*+/-[[Myxoid]] background.
*Cell size variation.
 
DDx:
*[[Angiolipoma]].
*[[Pleomorphic undifferentiated sarcoma]].

======Molecular======
Typically has a [[translocations|translocation]]:

=====Dedifferentiated liposarcoma=====
*Has an undifferentiated component that, if seen alone, would be diagnosed as [[pleomorphic undifferentiated sarcoma]].
*The diagnosis depends on the presence of the differentiated component of the tumour, i.e. the presence of lipoblasts.
 
===IHC===
*IHC is of limited value.
 
*S-100 +ve ~1/3 of the time.
*Reticulin ???.
