Primary intrathoracic liposarcoma: a clinicopathologic study and prognostic analysis of 23 cases

Abstract

The histological type and the radical surgery are the factors that influence the behavior and prognosis of liposarcoma. In general, radiotherapy and chemotherapy are believed to be ineffective therapeutic modalities for survival. So it is essential to completely resect the primary intrathoracic liposarcoma as radical cure of the disease.
