Abstract

This is a case report of an elderly male patient who presented with recurrent scrotal liposarcoma on the contralateral side. A 76-year-old male patient presented with swelling in the left scrotum in 2018 which showed gradual increase in size for a period of 1 year. The patient underwent high inguinal orchidectomy. Histopathology report was given as Myxoid liposarcoma. Post-surgery the patient underwent chemotherapy for the same. The yearly follow-up visits were unremarkable. Liposarcoma of the cord should be differentiated from other para-testicular masses. It is rarely diagnosed preoperatively and is usually mistaken for inguinal hernia, hematocoele and hydrocoele.

Keywords: Hematocoele, myxoid liposarcoma, inguinal hernia, hydrocoele
