Dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDLPS) is an extremely rare neoplasm that exhibits various morphologies. The tumor is characterized by immunoreactivity to MDM2 and CDK4 and can be confirmed by detecting MDM2 amplification via fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Herein, we report an unusual case of DDLPS arising from the duodenum.
