Liposarcoma

Liposarcomas are rare malignant tumors that can affect adipose tissue. They usually develop in the thighs and are rare in people under 30 years of age. There are four main types of liposarcomas, which differ in histological structure: well differentiated, myxoid, pleomorphic and round cell. The first two types usually respond better to treatment than the last two. Surgical removal is the main treatment, but chemotherapy and radiation therapy may also be used. Liposarcomas require close monitoring and regular examinations to monitor their growth and progression.

Liposarcoma is a rare benign tumor that begins to form in the subcutaneous fatty tissue or other tissues of the human body. In some cases, primary malignant tumors are diagnosed - liposarcoma. These formations are not a routine preventive procedure and can appear due to common risks such as trauma, metastases in the body and genetic changes. The main risk factor for developing liposarcomatosis is heredity, although this can manifest itself in a variety of ways so identifying the exact cause can be difficult. The formation of liposarcoma usually begins at the site of a tissue defect where fat accumulation occurs. Due to this localization of the disease, it develops mainly in the abdomen, around the waist or back of the thighs, and also causes severe pain in this area. If left untreated, the formation can spread more deeply and cause dangerous pathologies in other organs. Liposarcoma can occur in any area of ​​the human body, but usually affects the lower body, including the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks. Each individual case of neoplasm requires a separate approach to treatment. Although liposarcoma usually affects adults over 45 years of age, its prevalence can be found in children, women and men. The particular danger of this disease is that it can manifest itself at any age of the patient. For some patients this age is beyond twenty-five years, and for some it is beyond forty. About a third of cases occur in children aged 15-17 years. The main symptoms of this disease are pain, swelling of the skin, deformation changes in the skin and various sensitivity disorders. If these symptoms are detected, you should immediately contact a specialist to establish an accurate diagnosis. The sooner you detect it, the less likely you are to suffer damage to certain organs. The most effective way to recognize liposarcomas is differential laboratory testing. The resulting tissue samples are compared with absolutely healthy human organs. Another way to identify liposarcoma formations is to inject contrast agents into the body directly through the organ located next to the liposarcoma in order to identify and determine the exact location of the tumor. Surgical removal of liposarcoma remains one of the most effective methods of combating the disease. In addition, radiation, chemotherapy, and even cortisolone may be used, provided the patient takes them consistently. Do not try to cure liposarcoma with traditional methods! They will not be able to have a sufficiently effective effect on the tumor and, moreover, will not only not stop the growth of cancer cells, but will also worsen their general condition. It all depends on the specific condition and size of the tumor, in some cases
