Overview
Common risk factors in the development of liposarcoma include chemical carcinogens, radiation, immunodeficiency, genetic disorders, and viral infections.
Risk Factors
Common risk factors in the development of liposarcoma are:[1][1]
- Immunodeficiency
- Regional acquired immunodeficiency is sometimes associated with liposarcoma.
- Genetic susceptibility
