Urology. 1988 Feb;31(2):168-70. doi: 10.1016/0090-4295(88)90049-0.

Abstract

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.
