چکیده
sarcomas, following malignant fibrous histiocytoma. Approximately 42% of these tumors occur in the trunk, 41% in the lower extremities, 11% in the upper extremities, and 6% in the head and neck region (1). The chest wall, mediastinum, lung and pleura are far more rare primary sites. Primary pleural liposarcomas are particularly rare and only 17 cases have been reported to date, including one domestic case (2-5). Herein, we present a case of pleural liposarcoma invading the lung.
