Liposarcomas are the most common soft-tissue sarcomas in adults. Soft tissue sarcomas can be seen almost every localisation in the body, 10-15% of these are located in the retroperitoneum. Due to their slow growth and lack of specific anatomical compartments, retroperitoneal liposarcomas frequently reach an enormous size long before diagnosis. We describe a case of giant retroperitoneal liposarcoma successfully treated by surgical resection. The interest of our report is that the dimension alone should not be considered a contraindication for surgery and to remind the effectiveness of the first operation is the most important part of the therapy.
