RADIOLOGY: ABDOMEN: Case# 32791: LIPOSARCOMA. Seventy-four year old male with chest and left arm pain. Large mesenteric and retroperitoneal mass. The radiologic appearance is most consistent with a sarcoma of mixed cell type. Multiple metastatic pulmonary nodules in the lung bases. It is difficult to reconcile this diagnosis with the fact that no tumor was seen at laparotomy 4 months ago; however, the tumor looks much more like a sarcoma than a postoperative hematoma.
