A rare case of giant oesophageal liposarcoma treated with oesophagectomy

Background: Oesophageal sarcomas are extremely rare, constituting less than 5% of oesophageal tumours, with only 0.5% (10%) of these being liposarcomas. Aim: Presentation of a rare case of an oesophageal liposarcoma and review of the literature. Case Presentation: A 69-year-old man with a three-year history of voice changes and progressive dysphagia was referred to our department for consultation and treatment of a giant dedifferentiated oesophageal liposarcoma. The patient underwent hybrid McKeown oesophagectomy. Conclusions: Multimodal management of such patients in specialised centers may spare these patients the discomfort while offering the best chances for cure.
