Abstract |
Liposarcoma in childhood is rare. A case of a myxoid liposarcoma arising at the porta hepatis is reported in a 3-year-old boy with initial favourable response to surgery combined with radio- and chemotherapy. Fatal recurrence occurred at age 15 years. The radiological and sonographic findings of liposarcomas are reviewed.
