Liposarcoma was first described by Rudolph Virchow, a German [[Pathology|pathologist]], in 1857. Virchow reported a "myxoma lipomatoides malignum", highlighting the [[malignant]] nature of the [[tumor]].  Between 1954 and 1979, several authors reported cases of liposarcoma and suggested that liposarcoma should be [[Classification|classified]] according to [[Histopathology|histopathological]] [[analysis]] into well-differentiated, myxoid, and dedifferentiated subtypes.

In 1926, Jaffe [24] described several lesions arising
in the groin as liposarcoma and lipoma psuedomyxomatodes.
In 1927, Seids and McGinnis [56] further described
the myxoid nature of some of the lesions and indicated the
relationship to malignancy. In 1935, James Ewing [16]
further defined the tumor as arising from embryonal tissue
or from adult fat. It became apparent with several large
series reported by Ackerman and Wheeler in 1942 [1] and
Stout in 1944 [63] that the lesions had a variety of presentations
and that these along with both the size and
anatomic site related closely to prognosis. In 1943, Murray
working with Stout [39] reported growing liposarcomas
in vitro. Pack and Pearson in 1954 [44], Enterline and
coworkers in 1960 [11], and Enzinger and Winslow in
1962 [13] reported large series of cases, and they along
with Evans in 1979 [15] suggested that the tumors be classified as well-differentiated (which are probably
benign), myxoid, and dedifferentiated, both of which are
malignant forms.

Overview

Liposarcoma was first described by Rudolph Virchow, a German pathologist, in 1857. Virchow reported a "myxoma lipomatoides malignum", highlighting the malignant nature of the tumor. Between 1954 and 1979, several authors reported cases of liposarcoma and suggested that liposarcoma should be classified according to histopathological analysis into well-differentiated, myxoid, and dedifferentiated subtypes.

Historical Perspective

Discovery

  • Several lesions similar to lipoma myxomatodes were reported by Robertson in 1916.[3]
  • In 1921, Von Wahlendorf demonstrated that retroperitoneal tumors of the adipose tissue that are dangerous in a collective review of liposarcomas (14%) of 168 collected cases.[4]
  • The malignant component of the liposarcoma was described in 1927 by Seids et al., who reported malignant lesions with a myxoid component.[5]
  • Ewing described adipose tumors that arise from the embryonal tissue in adults in 1935.[6]
  • In 1942 and 1944, liposarcoma was described in different anatomical locations and with different clinical manifestations that were associated with the disease prognosis. [7][8]
  • Between 1954 and 1979, several authors reported cases of liposarcoma and suggested that liposarcoma should be classified according to histopathological analysis into well-differentiarted, myxoid, and dedifferentiated subtypes. [9][10][11]
