Abstract
We report the case of a 70-year-old man who underwent a right radical orchidectomy for a paratesticular tumour. Histological examination of the tumour revealed a well differentiated liposarcoma. No adjuvant therapy was given and at the 12-month follow-up the patient is in good health and no relapse has been observed.
