Abstract EN
Liposarcoma is categorized as a soft tissue sarcoma and most commonly appears in the lower extremities and rarely in the foot during adulthood.
We present a very rare case report of a primary well-differentiated liposarcoma arising in the foot on a 60-year-old female.
Marginal resection of the tumor with metatarsal ray amputation was eventually performed.
The patient's postoperative course was uneventful without recurrence 5 years after the original operation.
The authors review the literature and also report on the low incidence of this tumor arising in the foot.
