    Author: Nistal M, Regadera J, Jareño E, Paniagua R.
    Journal: Urol Int; 1988; 43(3):188-92. PubMed ID: 2845620.
    Abstract:
    A 74-year-old man with a right inguinal hernia since 15 years was admitted because of inguinal pain and enlarged ipsilateral testis. Surgical exploration revealed a hernia with an empty hernial sac and three tumoral masses in the spermatic cord. Tumoral masses, spermatic cord, and testis were removed. Histological examination of the tumoral masses revealed a malignant inflammatory fibrous histiocytoma. The tumor infiltrated the vas deferens, pampiniform plexus, and adjacent adipose tissue. Epididymis and testis were not infiltrated. Three years after treatment with radiotherapy no recurrence or metastases have been observed.
