Abstract
Liposarcoma of the spermatic cord is rare and is usually discovered during hernia repair operation. We report a 71-year-old patient with spermatic cord liposarcoma. The patient presented with a painless mass in the left scrotum measuring up to 25 cm. The mass had gradually been enlarging during the last 6 months. Clinical examination suggested inguinal hernia and after a routine clinical check-up the patient underwent surgery. During surgery, a large, yellow, lobulated mass adherent to spermatic cord was found. The mass was not spreading to the retroperitoneum, epididymis or testis. Simple orchidectomy was performed. Histopathologic diagnosis was well-differentiated liposarcoma comprising foci of myxoid and dedifferentiated liposarcoma. At present the patient is well and without recurrence 6 months after surgery.
