Twenty-eight patients with intra-abdominal mesenchymal sarcomas were examined with gray scale ultrasonography. Masses were present in the mesentery, abdominal hollow viscera, liver, and retroperitoneal areas. Four different ultrasonic patterns were observed in the extra hepatic abdominal masses: (a) hyperechoic masses intermixed with anechoic zones; (b) hyperechoic masses with central fluid-filled zones; (c) homogeneous hyperechoic masses; and (d) homogeneous hypoechoic masses. Three of 6 patients with hepatic masses were totally anechoic alongside other more typical metastatic patterns. The presence of a large mass with sonographic signs of necrosis should strongly suggest the possibility of sarcoma. The differential diagnosis is discussed.
