A case report of left lower lobe segmentectomy for pulmonary metastasis from retroperitoneal liposarcoma

ConclusionHere we have reported a case of pulmonary metastasis from retroperitoneal liposarcoma following limited surgery. In cases where respiratory function is limited, lower lobe segmentectomy can be an effective treatment. For the treatment of a single pulmonary metastasis from retroperitoneal liposarcoma, metastasectomy was considered to be effective as long as no local recurrence was seen after initial primary tumor resection.
