Liposarcoma of the paratesticular region is a rare malignant soft tissue neoplasm. Out of all the possible sites of liposarcoma, the incidence in spermatic cord is rare, accounting for only 5% of these neoplasms. Among the various subtypes of liposarcoma described in the paratesticular region, myxoid variant of liposarcoma is seen very rarely. One such case is we ported here for its rarity and also to draw attention to the fact that, early diagnosis and complete excision carry better prognostic value.
