Objective:
To report an unusual case of softtissue neoplasm and to review the literature on this type of tumour.
Methods:
We report an accidentally found tumour closely related to the spermatic cord that was diagnosed in a 70 year-old man when he was being operated on for an inguinal hernia repair.
Results:
After thorough analysis by experienced pathologists it was not possible to determine the nature of the tumour that was removed at surgery.
Conclusions:
Soft tissues neoplasms of the spermatic cord may occur in an unusual way and they may be a real challenge to diagnose.
