Giant well-differentiated liposarcoma of the spermatic cord: Case report

Liposarcomas represent less than 5% of genitourinary sarcomas and account for approximately 21%-51% of all paratesticular sarcomas, with the spermatic cord being the most in-volved structure. Diagnosis is confirmed by histopathology, and the mainstay of treatment is complete surgical resection, which can be supplemented with radiotherapy if surgical margins are positive. The role of chemotherapy remains controversial. We present the case of an 86-year-old male with a well-differentiated liposarcoma of the spermatic cord.

Abstract

Liposarcomas represent less than 5% of genitourinary sarcomas and account for approximately 21%-51% of all paratesticular sarcomas, with the spermatic cord being the most in-volved structure. Diagnosis is confirmed by histopathology, and the mainstay of treatment is complete surgical resection, which can be supplemented with radiotherapy if surgical margins are positive. The role of chemotherapy remains controversial. We present the case of an 86-year-old male with a well-differentiated liposarcoma of the spermatic cord.
