ENGLISH ABSTRACT
JOURNAL ARTICLE
[Recurrent retroperitoneal sarcoma].
Retroperitoneal sarcomas are rare malignant neoplasms that are often diagnosed late because of their typical nonspecific symptomatology. Radical surgical resection, if possible given the local anatomical conditions, is the most important treatment modality. However, even if the surgery is feasible and successful, the prognosis of retroperitoneal sarcoma is not good. The most frequent type of recurrence is local recurrence, and radical surgical resection remains the most important treatment modality even in such cases.Our study presents a case report of a patient with a retroperitoneal leiomyosarcoma that was radically (R0) removed. Two years later a local recurrence developed, which was eventually diagnosed by MRI. Again, radical (R0) surgical resection was approached (because of tumor invasion into inferior caval vein, the vein had to be partially resected as well and substituted with a vascular prosthesis).The report describes a relatively typical case of retroperitoneal sarcoma, while pointing out the importance of timely diagnosis (which is definitely not easy to achieve) and especially of radical surgical treatment.Key words: retroperitoneal sarcoma recurrence surgery.
