A case of liposarcoma of the spermatic cord

20241 citationOpen accessUniversity of Tunis El Manar

Abstract

Para-testicular liposarcoma develops from the fatty tissue surrounding the spermatic cord and covers the testicle and epididymis. It is an extremely rare pathological entity. We report the case of a 58-year-old african man who presented with a tumor mass developed from the right spermatic cord. Right orchidectomy with wide excision of the tumor was challenging due to the significant size of the mass. The histological examination of the surgical specimen favored a paratesticular liposarcoma.
