Description: Liposarcoma is one of the least frequent nonrhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcomas that occur in childhood; it comprises less than 5% of all soft tissue sarcomas. Surgical excision is the primary treatment, and prognosis is dependent on histologic subtype and degree of resection. For patients with residual disease, radiotherapy has been used.
