Liposarcoma with unusual neurological manifestations.
Central nervous system involvement in liposarcoma is rare, the only symptom reported in the literature being local compression of the spinal cord. An exceptional case with peripheral nerve involvement due to local recurrence, in addition to spinal cord compression and cavernous sinus syndrome due to metastases is reported.
