Liposarcoma of spermatic cord.
Liposarcoma of the spermatic cord is a rare tumor. Most are of a low-grade malignancy, and treatment is wide local excision with radical orchiectomy. At present there is no clear indication for chemotherapy. Because recurrence, especially local recurrence, is a possibility, periodic followup is necessary. Local recurrences are treated with repeat wide local excision and radiotherapy.
