Résumé
We present a case of successful resection of a large right upper quadrant retroperitoneal dedifferentiated liposarcoma involving multiple adjacent organs, initially considered inoperable in a patient in his 40s. This case highlights the importance of extensive preoperative planning and a multidisciplinary approach in achieving a greater chance of curative resection. Preoperative optimisation included neoadjuvant chemotherapy, concurrent portal vein embolisation and hepatic vein embolisation. The patient then underwent en-bloc resection, including total pancreatectomy, hemihepatectomy and vena caval resection in conjunction with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and percutaneous venovenous bypass.
