title: [Clinical contribution to the knowledge of retroperitoneal tumors of the pelvic excavation].
abstract: Two cases of primitive retroperitoneal tumors of the pelvic excavation have been reported: a neurinosarcoma and a liposarcoma. Particular, this work emphasizes the rarity of the neurinosarcoma in that seat, the atypical clinical presentation, the complex diagnostic researches performed and the problems of the differential diagnosis. In the diagnosis of these neoplasms, the Authors emphasize, the main role performed by the "classic" radiology and its most recently acquired means as (ECO, TAC, EMR). These can give precise informations about the seat and the size of the neoplasms and especially, about it's relationship with the adjacent tissues. By using these new means, other examinations some what dangerous, can be avoided. The Authors conclude that from the therapeutical point of view, surgery is still the main weapon against these neoplasms, even if sometimes it is demolishing and does not sensibly improve the prognosis. Surgery can be associated with radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy.
