BMC Cancer. 2022 Jan 03;22(1):15. doi: 10.1186/s12885-021-09122-7.

BACKGROUND: Paratesticular leiomyosarcoma (LMS) is a rare tumor. Conventionally, tumor resection by high inguinal orchiectomy is performed as the preferred treatment approach for paratesticular sarcoma. On the other hand, testis-sparing surgery has recently attracted attention as a less-invasive treatment...
