Abstrakt:	Paratesticular myxoid liposarcoma is an exceedingly rare malignancy originating from the spermatic cord or paratesticular tissues. We report a unique case of a 75-year-old male patient who presented with a painless scrotal swelling that had been growing for four years. Imaging investigations, including ultrasonography (USG) and contrast-enhanced computerized tomography (CECT), revealed characteristics consistent with paratesticular myxoid liposarcoma. The orchidectomy specimen confirmed a grade 2 right paratesticular myxoid liposarcoma. Despite its rarity, clinicians must consider this tumor in the differential diagnosis of painless scrotal swellings. Accurate diagnosis and comprehensive management, encompassing surgical resection with wide margins and potential adjuvant therapies, are pivotal. This case underlines the importance of collaborative research and long-term follow-up in understanding and managing paratesticular myxoid liposarcomas.
