Primary pulmonary liposarcoma is extremely rare. There are only 12 cases reported in the literature. We presented a case of low-grade primary pulmonary myxoid liposarcoma, which was diagnosed and underwent surgery in our clinic. The diagnosis was established after imaging investigations (X-ray and CT), histologic and immunohistochemical examinations. The patient was followed up one year after the operation.

Key Words: Pulmonary liposarcoma; Primary; Myxoid
