Spermatic cord myxoma: A rare case report.

Rationale: Spermatic cord myxomas are rare benign tumors, typically characterized by the production of mucopolysaccharides. These tumors are infrequently found in the urinary system, making this case noteworthy.

Patient Concerns: A 55-year-old male presented with a painless swelling on the right side of his scrotum, which had persisted for over 3 months. There were no associated symptoms, and the patient had no significant medical history.

Diagnoses: Initial diagnostic workup included physical examination, ultrasonography, and CT scans, which revealed a 2 cm cystic nodule near the right spermatic vein. Postoperative histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of myxoma.

Interventions: The patient underwent laparoscopic high ligation of the left spermatic vein and excision of the right spermatic sheath cyst. The surgery was successful, with the cyst being completely removed.

Outcomes: Postoperative recovery was uneventful, and histopathological examination confirmed the benign nature of the tumor. Follow-up was advised to monitor for any recurrence.

Lessons: Although rare, spermatic cord myxomas should be considered in the differential diagnosis of scrotal masses. Surgical excision is both diagnostic and therapeutic, providing a favorable prognosis with minimal risk of recurrence.
