Paratesticular Liposarcoma: A Diagnostic Challenge
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
Liposarcoma of the spermatic cord is rare. It usually presents as a painless slowly-growing scrotal mass of consistency like lipoma. Inguinal orchiectomy is an adequate surgical approach. Retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy is not indicated owing to the low malignancy potential of the sarcomas. Value of adjuvant radiotherapy/chemotherapy remains uncertain. Recurrences are frequent, owing to incomplete surgical removal of the tumor. We report on a 66 year old male who presented with one year history of a soft painless mass in the left scrotum. Radical orchiectomy was performed. Histological examination revealed a welldifferentiated liposarcoma of sclerosing subtype. No evidence of recurrence or metastases has been noted during the 6-month and one year follow-up without any postoperative adjuvant therapy
