Abstract :Liposarcoma, one of the most common soft-tissue sarcomas, originates from primitive mesenchymal cells, and its diagnostic have been well established. Myxoid liposarcoma is the second most common histological subtype, occurring more frequently during the fourth and fifth decades of life. We describe a case of recurrent myxoid liposarcoma of the right flank in 50 years old man. Treatment of the recurrence involved chemotherapy neo-adjuvant (3 courses), wide surgical resection (resection R1) followed by locoregional radiation therapy. Patient’s evolution was marked by complete remission maintained after 12 months follow-up. The myxoid liposarcoma has a low rate of local failure with trimodality therapy combined chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery.Keywords : Myxoid liposarcoma (MLS), recurrence, chemotherapy, radiotherapy
