Mixed myxoid/round cell liposarcoma of the scalp.
Liposarcoma of the head and neck is rare. Only 12 cases of scalp liposarcoma have been previously reported. In this report, we describe a case of myxoid/round cell liposarcoma in the scalp of a 28-year-old woman. This case report highlights a histologic pattern rarely reported in the head and neck but consistent with the evolving classification of liposarcomas.
