case_images: A biopsy was taken, and the histopathology report presented a malignant neoplastic process with morphological features of a myxoid liposarcoma, with uniformly round to oval shaped primitive non-lipogenic mesenchymal cells and signet-ring lipoblasts in a prominent myxoid stroma, with rich "chicken-wire" capillary vasculature (Figs. 3 and 4).
