Well-differentiated liposarcoma of the epiglottis.
[well-differentiated liposarcoma]
Liposarcomas
of
the
larynx
and
its
sub-sites
are
rare
.
Within
this
group
of
tumours
,
well-differentiated
liposarcomas
of
the
epiglottis
have
been
only
sporadically
reported
.
In
view
of
its
infrequent
presentation
,
difficulty
still
exists
over
the
diagnosis
of
this
pathological
entity
,
together
with
uncertainty
over
its
exact
accepted
management
.
We
present
the
case
of
a
well-differentiated
liposarcoma
of
the
epiglottis
,
and
we
review
the
associated
English
-
language
literature
.
The
reported
patient
underwent
multiple
attempts
at
surgical
treatment
prior
to
establishment
of
a
firm
diagnosis
.
In
light
of
the
diagnosis
and
other
mitigating
factors
,
a
conservative
approach
was
adopted
.
A
high
index
of
clinical
suspicion
and
detailed
histological
analysis
are
required
when
encountering
a
recurrent
soft
tissue
lesion
of
the
larynx
.
In
the
presented
case
,
a
multidisciplinary
approach
and
conservative
management
plan
were
adopted
,
based
on
a
holistic
management
approach
and
a
review
of
the
published
literature
.
