Liposarcomas (LPS) account for approximately 15% of all sarcomas among the mesenchymal neoplasms and 6% of primary mediastinal tumors. LPS, usually found in the lower extremities or retroperitoneum, have also been reported in the abdomen, vulva, and buttocks. However, primary LPS of the anterior mediastinum is extremely rare. In this paper, we present a case with a fast progressing metastatic primary myxoid liposarcoma of the anterior mediastinum. Keywords: Chemoradiotherapy, liposarcoma, mediastinum, myxoid
