A case of dedifferentiated liposarcoma discovered due to an intrascrotal calcified ossification.
Dedifferentiated liposarcoma is a rare cancer with a poor prognosis. A 52-year-old man presented with a chief complaint of a mass in his left scrotum. He came with suspected testicular tumor, but all the measured tumor markers were negative. Imaging test showed approximately 2 cm diameter mass accompanied by calcification with some substantial components between the testis and epididymis. Left high testicular resection was performed. The tumor had no continuity between the testis and epididymis, and the spermatic cord transection was negative. Pathological findings showed well differentiated fatty component and a dedifferentiated component around the trabecular bone-like tissue. We observed dedifferentiated dysmorphic cells mixed with fatty droplets of unequal size. Immunostaining led to the diagnosis of dedifferentiated liposarcoma. No additional postoperative therapy was performed. The possibility of dedifferentiated liposarcoma should be kept in mind even if mass is confined to the scrotum and consisted of calcification. In the case of an intrascrotal calcified mass with malignant perspective, radical surgery is highly recommended.
期刊介绍:
This online-only journal publishes original case reports on all types of cancer. In particular, we welcome not only case reports of educational value in the diagnosis and treatment of cancers, but also reports on molecularly analyzed cancer cases, including gene mutations, gene fusions, gene expression, and changes in copy number, regardless of their known clinical significance. Assessing the molecular analysis of a tumor usually requires a “cancer conference” in which experts from various fields discuss it. Even if the authors and their respective “cancer conference” were unable to determine the clinical significance of molecular changes at the time of submission and publication, their data may provide evidence that will help the scientific community develop precision medicine solutions in the future. We welcome case reports with reviews of the literature on similar cases, as they are more useful and valuable to readers than are reports of rare cases. International Cancer Conference Journal is the official publication of the Japan Society of Clinical Oncology (JSCO).
