A rare case of paratesticular leiomyosarcoma

Abstract

Paratesticular leiomyosarcoma is a rare tumour. It is seldom diagnosed pre-operatively and subsequent secondary resection is often required. Current treatment consensus comprises inguinal radical orchidectomy with high ligation of the spermatic cord. We present a case of a 74-year-old male with a 3-year history of a painless right-sided scrotal mass which following excision was found to be an epididymal leiomyosarcoma. A review of literature and treatment is presented in this article.
