ABSTRACT
OBJETIVO: Describir un caso infrecuente de patología genital y revisar la literatura existente. MÉTODOS: Nuestro caso trata de un paciente de 70 años que al ser intervenido de una hernia inguinal se descubre de forma accidental una tumoración en íntima relación con el cordón espermático. RESULTADOS: Tras el análisis exhaustivo de patólogos expertos no se pudo llegar a especificar la naturaleza exacta de la tumoración extirpada en la cirugía. CONCLUSIONES: Los tumores de partes blandas del cordón espermático pueden presentarse de forma inusual y llegar a plantear un verdadero reto diagnóstico

METHODS: We report an accidentally found tumour closely related to the spermatic cord that was diagnosed in a 70 year-old man when he was being operated on for an inguinal hernia repair. RESULTS: After thorough analysis by experienced pathologists it was not possible to determine the nature of the tumour that was removed at surgery. CONCLUSIONS: Soft tissues neoplasms of the spermatic cord may occur in an unusual way and they may be a real challenge to diagnose
