[A case of leiomyosarcoma of the spermatic cord].

A 44-year-old male was referred to our hospital for further treatment of lung and adrenal metastases from leiomyosarcoma occurring in the left spermatic cord. He had undergone high orchiectomy 5 months before, but no adjuvant therapy was done. Although systemic CYVADIC therapy (cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin hydrochloride, dacarbazine) was performed in our hospital, he died of metastatic disease 10 months after the initial therapy. Leiomyosarcoma arising in the spermatic cord is a rare entity. We present a case of leiomyosarcoma of the spermatic cord, and to our knowledge, this is the 23rd case reported in Japan.
