Core Tip

Core Tip: Surgical resection is the preferred treatment for well-differentiated liposarcoma (WDLPS). Hyper-accuracy three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction is widely used in robotic partial nephrectomy for its ability to visualize overlapping anatomy. Here, we report a case of giant WDLPS in the retroperitoneum treated by surgical resection using hyper-accuracy 3D reconstruction. To the best of our knowledge, our case was the first to use this technique for giant retroperitoneal WDLPS. We expect our case to highlight the value of hyper-accuracy 3D reconstruction for complicated open surgery and provide a basis for retroperitoneal liposarcoma treatment.
