[A case of retrovesical fibrosarcoma with severe hypoglycemia].
We report a case of retrovesical fibrosarcoma with severe hypoglycemia. A 67-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with second recurrence of the retrovesical tumor with hypoglycemia. The episodes of hypoglycemia were accompanied by the advance of tumor size. Complete tumor resection with total cystectomy was performed on December 21, 1989, and the tumor was diagnosed histopathologically as fibrosarcoma. Soon after removal of the tumor, hypoglycemia disappeared and the patient has been well without local recurrence or distant metastasis for more than 20 months.
