Abstract EN

Epididymal leiomyosarcoma is very uncommon.

Only 16 cases have been reported in the literature.

There has never been a reported case of a patient with an African origin with this tumor.

We report the medical history of a 70-year-old man who presented an enormous mass located in his epididymis.

A tricut biopsy was performed which allowed histological confirmation of epididymal leiomyosarcoma after which the patient underwent excision of the mass.

The patient died after the first round of chemotherapy.
