- Abstract
This article discusses a rare type of tumor called a lipoblastoma-like tumor that can occur in the male genital region. The authors describe a case of this tumor in the spermatic cord of a 20-year-old male, which was previously thought to only occur in the vulva. They also note the resemblance of this tumor to another type called fibrosarcoma-like lipomatous neoplasm. Since their original report, there have been further cases of lipoblastoma-like tumors in the male genital region, and studies have suggested that these tumors may be the same as fibrosarcoma-like lipomatous neoplasms. The authors conclude that their case could be classified as either a male counterpart of lipoblastoma-like tumor of the vulva or a fibrosarcoma-like lipomatous neoplasm of the paratesticular region.
