Spermatic cord lipomas are rare benign tumors. Surgical removal is the definitive diagnostic and treatment method, despite ultrasound

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Lipomas are the most common benign tumors of the spermatic cord.
  • However, their absolute incidence remains very low.

Observation:

  • This report details a case of spermatic cord lipoma with a long history of evolution.
  • The patient presented with a gradually enlarging scrotal mass.

Findings:

  • Ultrasound can suggest lipoma but is not definitive.
  • Exploratory scrototomy and complete surgical excision are necessary for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Implications:

  • Highlights the importance of surgical intervention for suspected spermatic cord lipomas.
  • Emphasizes the need for histological confirmation post-excision.
