Well-differentiated liposarcoma mimicking a pleomorphic lipoma--a case report.
A case of well-differentiated liposarcoma with floret-like multinucleated giant cells in a 59-year-old woman who presented with supraclavicular mass is described. On the biopsy section, the mass had an appearance consistent with a pleomorphic lipoma. Multiple microscopic sections revealed the pathognomic features of a well-differentiated liposarcoma.
