    Organ Sparing Surgery for a Giant Liposarcoma
    (2015) Aytac, Huseyin Ozgur; Torer, Nurkan; Ozen, Merve; Arer, Ilker Murat
    Liposarcomas those are malignant soft tissue tumors often occur in large sizes in the retroperitoneum and abdomen due to their silent clinic. Excision with negative margins is the gold standard of treatment. A case operated on for a giant intraabdominal liposarcoma is being reported. A giant soft tissue tumor filling the whole abdomen was determined in the computed tomography scan. Core biopsy was obtained and demonstrated a well-differentiated liposarcoma. A 15 kg of mass 44x30x14 cm in size was excised en-bloc. Pathological examination of this tumor showed a well-differentiated liposarcoma with mixoid parts. No recurrence was observed in two years of follow-up despite any adjuvant therapy. This is to be one of the largest retroperitoneal sarcomas in the literature.

    Granulocytic sarcoma of finger: a case report
    (2016) Purbager, Aysin; Ozen, Merve; Aslan, Hulya; Tok, Sermin; Kocer, Emrah
    Granulocytic sarcoma is an extramedullary tumor of immature myeloid cells. Such tumors may be located in any part of the body. We report a case of isolated granulocytic sarcoma of finger; which, to our knowledge, is the first report of that localization. A thirty-year-old woman with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) presented with progressive swelling and onychoptosis at her right fourth finger. The distal phalanx was excised and the tumor turned out to consisted of atypical myeloid cells, infiltrating bone trabeculae. Despite its rarity, considering myeloid sarcoma of the finger as a possible diagnosis may prevent inappropriate treatment in leukemia patients.
