background: anterior pelvic ring surgery includes a variety of plating techniques and insertion of retrograde superior pubic ramus screws. anterior acetabular surgery also includes fixation through an ilioinguinal or stoppa approach. these exposures risk injury to the spermatic cord and accompanying genital branch of the genitofemoral nerve. the primary aim of this study was to identify the dis...

Purpose: Surgeons performing an ilioinguinal exposure for acetabular fracture surgery need to be aware of aberrant findings such as inguinal hernias and spermatic cord lesions. The purpose of this study is to report these occurrences in a clinical series of adult males undergoing acetabular fracture fixation and a series of adult male cadavers. The secondary aim is to characterize these abnorma...

hemangioma of the spermatic cord is a benign, extremely rare tumor. we report a case of spermatic cord hemangioma presenting with a painless mass in the left hemiscrotum. physical examination revealed a non-tender non-transilluminating irregular mass in the left hemiscrotum, above and clearly separate from the left testis. after surgical removal of the mass arising from the spermatic cord, hist...

Acute scrotal swelling is an urgent urologic condition, and its failure in diagnosis is "one of the litigious issues in urologic practice. "1-2 Although acute scrotal pain is due to spermatic cord torsion in 25-35% of cases, the urologist should either rule it out or treat it immediately. 2 We operated a case of acute scrotal edema in a two-day-old boy who had, according to clinical results...

spermatic cord liposarcomas are very rare tumors. patients usually present with painless growing scrotal swellings which are clinically misdiagnosed as hernia. the correct diagnosis is not common and usually they present as operative or histological surprises. to our knowledge, there are about 186 similar cases reported in the literature. herein we report three cases of spermatic cord liposarco...

Malignant spermatic cord tumor is quite uncommon. Metastatic spermatic cord tumor is even rarer. Here we report a case of metastatic spermatic cord tumor from a common hepatic duct tumor (Klatskin tumor). A 38-year-old man presented with right scrotal enlargement and chronic testicular pain. He had a Klatskin tumor (cholangiocarcinoma) stage IIIa, and underwent an extended right hepatectomy wit...

OBJECTIVES Tumors of the spermatic cord and epididymis are rare, and their exact incidence is difficult to determine. Ninety percent of extra testicular tumors within the scrotum are found in the spermatic cord, where 30% is malignant (1). METHODS In this case report we present an unusual spermatic cord tumor, i.e. myositis ossificans (MO). To the best of our knowledge, MO of the spermatic co...

abstract malignant spermatic cord tumor is rare. spermatic cord metastasis is less common and the prognosis of these patients is poor. here we report a case of unilateral spermatic cord metastasis from advanced gastric cancer. a 57-year-old male underwent total gastrectomy due to advanced gastric cancer. three years later, a painless hard palpable mass in the left inguinal area developed and th...
