Abstract

Liposarcoma of the spermatic cord (LSC) is a very rare disease. In literature, are reported less than 350 cases. Genitourinary sarcomas account for <5% of all soft-tissue sarcomas and <2% of malignant urologic tumours. An inguinal mass is the clinical presentation, which can mimic a hernia or hydrocele. Since it is such a rare disease, there are insufficient data on chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and in any case, the data come from low-level scientific evidence. Here, we report the case of a patient who came to the observation for a giant inguinal mass, in which a definitive diagnosis was obtained with the histological examination.
