Abstract
In Paraguay, soft tissue tumors represent less than 2% together with other tumors; Of these, sarcomas are rare, with a predilection in older adults from 50 years of age, they arise at the expense of the fatty tissue located in the TCS, specifically from the perirenal fat. They manifest as a slowly growing asymptomatic mass. We present the case of a 70-yearold man with symptoms of an acute occlusive abdomen that required an emergency exploratory laparotomy, finding a retroperitoneal tumor that compressed the splenic flexure of the colonic frame. Images of the surgical act and the operative piece are attached.
