description The patient was a 45-year-old male who initially presented with a left hydrocele. During radiographic work-up, a 26 cm right retroperitoneal lipoma was incidentally discovered. Despite a recommendation for preoperative radiation therapy followed by surgery from the sarcoma multispecialty team, the patient opted for surgery alone, in the hopes of avoiding damage or loss of his right kidney. Following surgical excision of the 39 cm well-differentiated liposarcoma, with removal of the perinephric fat adjacent to the tumor thereby preserving the kidney, he was discharged home after two nights in the hospital. Follow-up imaging eight months later showed no recurrence.
