Abstract:
Liposarcoma (LS) is the most common soft tissue sarcomas ( STSs ) that arise from embryonic mesenchymal tissue. Though these sarcomas commonly arise at retroperitoneal locations and extremities, the appearance of these tumors in the head and neck region is rare, with the tongue as a preferred site. Well differentiated liposarcoma is the most common variant among all.
