Abstract:
Retroperitoneal sarcomas are rare tumors representing 0.1% to 0.2% of all malignant tumors. They are usually revealed by an abdominal mass (33%), possibly associated with pain (41%). Edema of the lower limbs is reported in 10% of cases. Acute renal failure with anuria by bilateral ureteral compression, associated with invasion of the inferior vena cava has not been previously reported.
