Primary retroperitoneal neoplasms are an extremely rare group of tumors (lymphoma is not included in this definition). The most common type is soft tissue sarcoma (90%).

Epidemiology

The most common age for presentation is 40-50 years.

Clinical presentation

Frequently tumors have relatively unimpeded growth where symptoms develop late and the tumor at presentation tending to be extremely large (average size 11-20 cm).

Pathology

Primary retroperitoneal neoplasms arise from outside the major organs, and are divided according to histological types:

  • mesenchymal origin: skeletal muscle, fat, peripheral nerve, vessels, fibrous tissue
  • extragonadal germ cell tumors
  • primary retroperitoneal adenocarcinoma
Etiology

The order of frequency of primary retroperitoneal malignancy is as follows:

Causes include radiotherapy, e.g. neuroblastoma treatment as a child.

Radiographic features

Imaging is used to confirm the diagnosis, assess for any metastatic disease and determine the potential for resection. CT is the most commonly used tool. MRI can be used for further differentiation, but histology is always required.

Percutaneous biopsy may be undertaken (after consultation with surgeons and oncologists), and for assessment of tumor grade, PET may be used .

Treatment and prognosis

Prognosis depends on the histological type of a tumor and the potential for resection.

Recurrence rates are high (90% in some series), so imaging surveillance is an important part of continued follow-up.
