title: [Spermatic cord liposarcoma: a case report and review of the literature].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To explore the clinical features and treatment of spermatic cord liposarcoma (SCL).
  
  
  METHODS
  We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of a case of SCL, reviewed the related literature and investigated the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The patient underwent tumor resection and left inguinal orchidectomy. Postoperative pathology confirmed the case to be s SCL. Neither recurrence nor metastasis was found during the five-month follow-up.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  SCL is a rare medical condition with no specific imaging and laboratory features. Radical orchidectomy with wide local excision of the mass is recommended for its treatment, and adjuvant radiotherapy can be considered in intermediately or highly differentiated tumors and recurrent liposarcomas, while the role of chemotherapy is not well-defined.
