Primary liposarcoma of the stomach.
Sarcomas represent less than 1% of adult solid malignancies and are rarely seen in the gastrointestinal tract. Here, we report a 59-year-old female with a well-differentiated liposarcoma of the stomach. This is the first case in the literature in which endoscopic ultrasound proved to be a diagnostic tool for gastric liposarcoma.
