Dedifferentiated Paratesticular Liposarcoma with Osseous Metaplasia
نویسندگان
چکیده
Paratesticular liposarcoma is a rare tumour of the genitourinary track but the most common of all sarcomas in adults. The dedifferentiated variation occurs only in 10% of liposarcoma cases. The typical clinical presentation is similar to an inguinal hernia or a benign lipoma. We present the case of a dedifferentiated paratesticular liposarcoma with osseous metaplasia of the spermatic cord, in a male presented with acute scrotum.

متن کاملParatesticular dedifferentiated liposarcoma with leiomyosarcomatous differentiation: a case report with a review of literature
UNLABELLED Paratesticular liposarcoma is a rare neoplasm, described in single case studies or components of larger studies, as histologically well-differentiated liposarcoma (WDL) and dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DL). However, leiomyosarcomatous differentiation is an extremely rare occurrence in WDL and DL. We report a case of leiomyosarcomatous differentiation in a 77-year-old man. The patien...
متن کاملScrotal liposarcoma – a rare extratesticular tumour
Scrotal and inguinal masses are common patient complaints that prove diagnostically challenging due to the multiple anatomic structures found in the confined space of the scrotum. History and adequate examination is the cornerstone in diagnosing scrotal pathology. Ultrasonography is the principle radiologic study used to evaluate scrotal masses. This can locate the site of a mass, and different...
