| Core Tip |
The retroperitoneal space represents the third most frequent location for perivascular epithelioid cell tumours (PEComas) not otherwise specified development. Half were stratified as potentially malignant, and nearly half of the potentially malignant tumours presented with or developed metastases during the course of the disease. Thus, retroperitoneal PEComas are not as indolent as they are supposed to be. Radical surgical resection constitutes the treatment of choice for localized disease, while mammalian target of the rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitors constitute the most promising therapy for disseminated disease. The role of mTOR inhibitors as adjuvant or neoadjuvant therapies needs to be evaluated in the future. |
