1. The learner should be able to differentiate between primary and secondary retroperitoneal masses
2. The learner should be able to list fat-containing lesions occurring in the retroperitoneal, both primary and secondary.
3. The learner should be able to compile a short differential diagnosis based on the location, imaging features and clinical presentation.
