A 68-year-old female was operated for a giant dedifferentiated retroperitoneal liposarcoma (RLS) encasing entirely the right kidney. She had an en-bloc resection of the tumor with right nephrectomy. The en-bloc resection should avoid R1 resection margins. Renal conservation is suggested if the kidney is widely displaced and for elderly patient.

Clear cell chondrosarcoma (CCC) is a rare subtype of chondrosarcoma with a relatively low malignant potential, mainly diagnosed by its characteristic location in the epiphysis of long bones. We report the case of a 33-year-old gentleman who presented with pain, difficulty in walking and restricted range of motion of the right hip joint, with a lesion located in the proximal femoral metaphysis and completely sparing the epiphysis. Needle biopsy was consistent with CCC, which was extremely unusual considering the location of the tumour. The patient was treated by “en bloc” resection of the tumour along with femoral head and reconstruction with hemiarthroplasty. The final histopathology report confirmed the diagnosis with clear surgical margins. The aim of this case report and literature review was to highlight the unusual location of this rare tumour, as such an isolated case of CCC completely sparing the epiphysis has never been reported.

Chordomas are rare, locally aggressive neoplasms that develop from remnants of the notochord. The typical approach to chordomas of the clivus and axial cervical spine often limits successful en bloc resection. In this case report, authors describe the first-documented transoral approach using both transoral robotic surgery (TORS) for exposure and the Sonopet bone scalpel under navigational guidance to achieve en bloc resection of a cervical chordoma. This 27-year-old man had no significant past medical history (Charlson Comorbidity Index 0). During a trauma workup following a motor vehicle collision, a CT of the patient’s cervical spine demonstrated an incidental 2.2-cm lesion situated along the posterior aspect of the C2 vertebral body. Postoperative imaging showed successful en bloc resection with adequate placement of hardware, and the pathology report demonstrated negative resection margins. The patient tolerated the procedure well, and because of the successful en bloc resection, radiation has been deferred. At 7 months postoperatively, the patient returned to work in New York City. Contrasted MRI at 15 months postoperatively showed the patient to be disease free. This approach offers a promising way forward in the treatment of these complex tumors.

AbstractLiposarcomas are neoplasms of mesodermal origin derived from adipose tissue representing 10 to 14% of all soft tissue sarcomas, with the most frequent subtype being liposarcoma. Given that the retroperitoneum is a large space in which the retroperitoneal liposarcoma can grow asymptomatically up until a mass effect develop. Hence, patients usually present late with symptoms with possible invasion to nearby structures. These tumors are known to reach significantly large dimension, despite their poor vascularization and can grow to enormous size, the average diameter of the tumor is 20 to 25 cm with a weight of 15 to 20 kg. Surgery with en-bloc resection of the tumor and adherent nearby structures, with intact capsule, remains the gold standard in surgical management of retroperitoneal sarcomas. Herein, we present a case of 52 year old male patient with a huge 48 cm right-sided retroperitoneal liposarcoma, managed surgically by en bloc excision of the tumor, right kidney, right ureter, right adrenal gland, and the right colon.

Fracture of the navicular occurred in a 23-year-old male with unilateral cartilaginous calcaneonavicular coalition. Inversion sprain of the left foot caused the longitudinal navicular fracture next to the coalition. En bloc resection from the beak of the calcaneus to the fracture line of the navicular including the calcaneonavicular coalition was performed, and a short leg cast was applied for 10 days. Four weeks after surgery, he returned to his preinjury level of activity and job as a long-distance truck driver. Two years and 3 months after surgery, he was totally asymptomatic and had gained a full range of subtalar motion. He had no peroneal spasm or recurrence of the coalition.
