Liposarcoma of the head and neck are seen only occasionally. In particular manifestations of this tumour in the submandibular region or the floor of the mouth are very rare. The pathohistological features and the clinical picture of these tumours are described by means of a case report and a review of the literature. The close correlation between histological differentiation and prognosis of liposarcoma is underlined. The recommended possibilities of treating these rare soft tissue tumours are discussed.
