Abstract
Paratesticular liposarcoma is a very rare tumor that is typically reported as isolated cases of or as components of larger studies of liposarcomas. Image findings are similar to those of other anatomic sites, but in less-common sites, their appearance may be less familiar, and they may be mistaken for other pathologies. In addition, atypical image findings of liposarcoma make diagnosis more difficult. Herein, we report on the case of a 45-year-old male patient who presented with a painless, palpable mass in the right scrotum. The patient was diagnosed with paratesticular liposarcoma by excisional biopsy.
