Atypical lipomatous tumour (lipoma-like well-differentiated liposarcoma) arising in a pulmonary hamartoma and clinically presenting with pneumothorax.

We document an uncommon variant of pulmonary hamartoma (PH), discovered in the left upper lobe of a 60-year-old man after an episode of pneumothorax, a unique clinical presentation for such an occurrence. The tumour showed a prominent leaf-like pattern and was mainly composed of mature fat with adipocytes of different size and scattered throughout lipoblasts and floret-like cells. A lobectomy was performed and more than 7 years after surgery the patient's course is still uneventful. This case represents an exceedingly rare example of an histologically malignant change in PH and bears a close clinicopathologic resemblance to atypical lipomatous tumours of soft tissues.

[Retroperitoneal liposarcoma in a patient with renal transplantation].

A case of retroperitoneal sarcoma in a kidney transplanted patient is presented. We describe the presentation pattern and the aggressive outcome despite the surgical removal of 5.900 gr. retroperitoneal tumor, included native kidney. The patient died due multiple metastasis six months later. An interesting iconography shows the great volume of the tumor.

[Uterine liposarcoma invading abdominal wall and inguinal region. Immediate reconstruction using a pedicled anterolateral thigh flap].

The anterolateral thigh flap is a particular flap of the vastus lateralis musculocutaneous flap (perforator flap). This flap was used as a pedicled flap to reconstruct the abdominal wall and to cover the inguinal region following the resection of a voluminous tumor of the womb invading the abdominal wall, the femoral vessels and the skin. The flap included a large facial paddle nourishing a skin island and a little muscle paddle including the perforator vessel. This medially positioned facial paddle allowed to increase the area of useful flap. So it was possible to reconstruct a 10x15 cm abdominal wall defect, and to cover the vascular decking in inguinal region with this only flap. In spite of the harvesting of a small muscular paddle of vastus lateralis (with conservation of the motor nerve) the function of thigh extension has been preserved. Besides the subtlety described to increase the "solid" surface of the fragment, it seems that the anterolateral thigh flap is perfectly useful to cover defects of soft tissues in inguinal region after vascular surgery, indication which was not reported to our knowledge in spite of the high frequency of these losses defects.

The management of retroperitoneal liposarcoma with synchronous intra-duodenal sarcoma.

Intra-abdominal (as opposed to extremity or limb and limb-girdle) soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are rare and account for less than 1% of all diagnosed neoplasms. These tumours are usually associated with a poor prognosis and are often locally invasive and metastatic at the time of presentation. Retroperitoneal sarcomas with synchronous or metachronous different histological types are rare and intra-duodenal sarcomas extremely unusual. A case of a giant retroperitoneal STS weighing approximately 15 kg consisting of two histologically different types is presented. Intra-duodenal involvement with sarcoma was found intra-operatively. We discuss the management of this condition in the context of an illustrative case in our recent experience.
