A primary intraosseous liposarcoma in a kudu (Tragelaphus strepsiceros), is reported. The lesion had a multilocular radiographic appearance and caused fracture of a metacarpus of the right front leg. Microscopically the lesion consisted of a lobular proliferation of lipoblasts of varying maturity. This is the first description of an intraosseous liposarcoma in a nondomesticated animal.
