Abstract
|
|
|
Myxoid liposarcoma arose from the spermatic cord is very rare. Also, it is difficult to diagnose by clinical findings or radiologic study. Even if it was a malignant tumor, scrotal malignancy is often misdiagnosed in many cases. A 55-year-old man presented with a mass in the left scrotum. Tumor markers showed all normal range. A scrotal magnetic resonance imaging scan revealed a vascular tumor such as a hemangioma. But, we performed radical orchiectomy. The mass was diagnosed as paratesticular myxoid liposarcoma. It is important to keep in mind the differential diagnosis of paratesticular liposarcoma in the case of a painless scrotal tumor.
