Abstract:
Spermatic cord sarcoma is often misdiagnosed by the urologists due to its rarity. One patient with fibroliposarcoma of the spermatic cord and brief review on the diagnosis, critical analysis of the biologic behavior and the therapeutic approach are presented. The authors suggest that the regimen for this lesion be made upon the tumor cell type and the pathologic grade after radical orchiectomy.

Spermatogenesis
Spermatogenesis is the process by which haploid sperm cells are produced in the male testes. It starts with stem cells located close to the outer rim of seminiferous tubules. These spermatogonial stem cells divide asymmetrically to give rise to additional stem cells (meaning that these structures “self-renew”), as well as sperm progenitors, called spermatocytes. Importantly, this method of asymmetric mitotic division maintains a population of spermatogonial stem cells in the male reproductive...
Rous Sarcoma Virus (RSV) and Cancer
Rous Sarcoma virus or RSV was discovered by F. Peyton Rous in the year 1911 as a filterable transmissible agent that could cause tumors in chickens. He won a Nobel Prize for this discovery in 1966. His experiments clearly demonstrated that some cancers could be caused by infectious agents and led to the discovery of many more cancer-causing viruses in animals as well as humans.
