Stapled hemorrhoidectomy was performed with the use of a circular stapling device. Seventy-four patients with grade III and IV hemorrhoids were randomly allocated to undergo either stapled (37 patients) or open (37 patients) hemorrhoidectomy. more The aim of the study was to compare the early results in 52 patients randomly allocated to undergo either stapled or open hemorrhoidectomy. The aim of the study was to compare the early results in 52 patients randomly allocated to underg. Given the impossibility to distinguish well-differentiated liposarcomas from lipomas and the in the present case of unresectable retroperitoneal. The mass was stable at the CT, performed at 1-year follow-up. At six-month follow-up a CT documented an increase of the tumor to 22x13 cm. Histological examination showed the presence of adipose tissue with diffuse liponecrosis without definitive features of neoplasia. Because of unresectability an open surgical biopsy was performed. Contrast enhanced computerized tomography (CT) of the abdomen and pelvis showed a 20x12 cm mass arising in the retroperitoneum and inglobing the celiac and superior mesenteric trunks. A 53-years-old male was admitted with the presence of a palpable mass in the upper abdomen. They should be distinguished from well-differentiated liposarcomas in order to provide the appropriate treatment. Retroperitoneal lipomas are extremely rare. more Liposarcomas are the most common type of sarcomas arising in the retroperitoneum.
