INTRODUCTION: The paratesticular tumors represent 7-10% of the intraescrotales masses. Sarcomas includes 90% of the espermatic cord malignant lessons and approximately the 3-7% are liposarcomas. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We presented our experience with two cases of paratesticular liposarcomas. RESULTS: Actually it has been reported near 161 cases of paratesticular liposarcoma. Due to the rarely of this pathology it is difficult to know its natural history and to reach conclusions of the treatment results, which one until the moment continues being radical orchiectomy with wide local resection of the surrounding soft tissues, the value of adjuvant radiation and chemotherapy is even controversial. CONCLUSIONS: Sarcomas of the espermatic cord are rare, their initial treatment is surgical, we recommended the transoperatory valuation of the surgical edges to try to diminish the recurrence frequency.
