title: [Primary liposarcoma of the mediastinum: contribution of MRI to the diagnosis. Apropos of a case].
abstract: An exceptional case of liposarcoma arising in posterior mediastinum is reported in a young woman. CT fails in diagnosis because no area of fatty density was found. MR features were suggestive of this etiology.
