Radical orchidectomy and high ligation of cord<br />followed by surveillance is the treatment of choice. Here we report a 73-year-old man who presented<br />with a 2-year history of painless lump in the left hemiscrotum. A left radical orchiectomy with high<br />ligation of the spermatic cord was performed. The histo-pathological and immunohistochemistry<br />evaluation revealed a moderately differentiated leiomyosarcoma of paratesticular region. The<br />patient is still alive with no evidence of local recurrence and distant metastasis after seven years of<br />follow-up.<br />_______________________________________________________________________________________<br />Keywords: leiomyosarcoma; spermatic cord; paratesticular; surgical procedures.</p> ER -
