Abstract

Spindle cell lipoma is a rare lipoma, originates from subcutaneous tissue and mostly seen at back region. In this case report we represent a case with inguinal mass misdiagnosed as inguinal hernia and then diagnosed as spindle cell lipoma. There are two cases in literature with spindle cell lipoma originating from spermatic cord. This case is unique as having both pheochromacytoma and inguinal spindle cell lipoma mistaken as inguinal hernia.

Spindle Cell Lipoma of the Spermatic Cord Accompanying Pheochromacytoma

Abstract

İğsi hücreli lipom subkutan dokulardan kaynaklanan genellikle sırt ve ensede görülen nadir bir lipom çeşididir. Bu olgu sunumunda sol kasığında fıtıkla karışan kitlesi mevcut olan ve daha sonra bu kitlenin iğsi hücreli lipom olduğu saptanan hastayı sunduk. Literatürde daha önce 2 defa spermatik kord kaynaklı iğsi hücreli lipom bildirilmiştir. Bu olgu sunumu feokromasitomayla birlikte olan ve kasık fıtığıyla karışan literatürdeki ilk iğsi hücreli hücreli lipom olma özelliğine sahiptir
