Abstract
Liposarcomas are rate malignant tumors of adipose tissue that develop primarily in older dogs (Goldschmidt et al., 2000). They are considered as soft tissue neoplasms because of their mesenchymal or connective tissue cell origin (Daugaard, 2004). They often arise from extremities and retropritoneum (Peterson et al., 2003). In the present report an unusual case of liposarcoma in a bitch and its successful surgical management are placed on record.
