Liposarcoma presenting within an inguinal hernia is rare. It may manifest as either primary spermatic cord liposarcoma or as an extension of retroperitoneal liposarcoma into the inguinoscrotal region. Tumors originating in the retroperitoneum can extend toward the inguinal region through the gonadal vein pathway. Utilizing imaging modalities is crucial for differentiating between a retroperitoneal component and a fat-containing inguinal mass. Identification of non-lipomatous components within a fat-containing tumor provides diagnostic clues on radiological imaging.
腹股沟疝内出现脂肪肉瘤很罕见。它可能表现为原发性精索脂肪肉瘤,也可能是腹膜后脂肪肉瘤延伸至腹股沟阴囊区域。起源于腹膜后的肿瘤可通过性腺静脉途径向腹股沟区延伸。利用成像方式对于区分腹膜后成分和含脂肪的腹股沟肿块至关重要。在含脂肪的肿瘤内识别非脂肪瘤成分可在放射影像学上提供诊断线索。
