Abstract

A liposarcoma of paratesticular origin is extremely rare, and preoperative diagnosis is difficult. Most are a low-grade malignancy. We report a case of a mixed liposarcoma of the paratesticular tissues in a 74-year-old man. Treatment consisted of a radical orchiectomy without retroperitoneal lymph node dissection. The patient has survived 18 months with no evidence of a recurrence.
