Abstract

Intrascrotal, extratesticular liposarcomas are relatively rare tumors. There have been few cases reported as isolated case reports in the literature. The patients usually apply to the hospital with a hernia-like painless mass growing slowly in the scrotal region. The most appropriate approach is surgical excision of the mass. There is no accep-ted consensus on adjuvant therapy. These tumors need to be distinguished from other spermatic cord-related malignancies. There is no standard treatment method for scrotal liposarcomas that have several subtypes. In this case report, with a review of the literature, it was aimed to present the case of a 41-year-old patient who applied to our clinic with a scrotal mass and who was determined to have scrotal liposarcoma after surgical excision.

Keywords: scrotum; extratesticular mass; li-posarcoma.
