  • Title: Malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the spermatic cord.
    Author: Williamson JC, Johnson JD, Lamm DL, Tio F.
    Journal: J Urol; 1980 May; 123(5):785-8. PubMed ID: 6252354.
    Abstract:
    We present 3 cases of malignant fibrous histiocytoma arising from the spermatic cord. This tumor occurs rarely in genitourinary organs and only 2 cases involving the spermatic cord have been reported previously. Recurrence rates of approximately 44 per cent of malignant fibrous histiocytoma in other sites are not improved by radiation or chemotherapy as adjuvants or primary means of treatment. Radical inguinal orchiectomy along with wide en bloc local resection is the therapy of choice.
