[Liposarcoma of the spermatic cord. Review of the literature. Apropos of a case of myxoid liposarcoma].

Based on one case of spermatic cord liposarcoma, the authors mention the different histological types of this lesion. A review of the literature confirms this rare tumor typically occurs in the adult population; the majority of spermatic cord liposarcomas are of low grade malignancy. The treatment of choice remains radical orchidectomy with wide excision of the tumor. Because of the predilection of this lesion for local recurrence, the patients must be followed periodically.
