Extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma is a rare soft tissue neoplasm that occurs predominantly in the soft tissues of the lower extremities. Herein we present a case of a 29 year old male who presented with bilateral femoral numbness believed to be the result of prior injury to his back. A magnetic resonance imaging revealed a mass in the T4-T5 epidural space compressing the spinal cord. Laminect...

The authors present a case of primary intracranial extraosseous myxoid chondrosarcoma without any attachment to the cranium or the meninges. The clinical and radiological findings of the primary intraparenchymal tumor are described with a review of the literature concerning cranial and intracranial myxoid chondrosarcoma.

Liposarcomas are classified into 4 different subtypes, with the myxoid-round cell variant demonstrating increased morbidity and metastatic potential dependent on cell composition. Unique to sarcomas, the myxoid-round cell liposarcoma is remarkably sensitive to radiation therapy in the pretreatment setting, owing to the tumor morphology and vascular distribution. Herein we report a case of myxoi...

Myxoid neurofibroma is benign tumours of perineural cell origin that arise from elements in the peripheral nervous system. We report a case of a 60-year-old female patient presented with history of right ear mass which was slowly growing. Her primary complaint was cosmetic deformity but hearing loss was also present. The mass was excised and histologically revealed a myxoid neurofibroma. To the...

Myxoid mesenchymal tumours are a heterogeneous group of neoplasms characterised histologically by their abundant mucoid and myxoid extracellular matrix (ECM). Encompassing a broad spectrum of clinical behaviour ranging from benign to malignant, there are more than 60 reactive and neoplastic entities currently classified under its domain. Its varied clinical and histopathologic features continue...

Download pose: Myxoid liposarcoma is a common subtype of liposarcoma. It is associated in more than 90% es with the chromosomal translocation t(12;16)(q13;p11) leading to the fusion FUS-CHOP gene responsible for the oncogenic transformation of preadipocytes. Recently the marine natural prodbectedin has shown highly selective activity for myxoid liposarcoma, even in the most aggressive -cell sub...

Myxoid DFSP expresses apolipoprotein D and presents with a storiform pattern and characteristic subcutaneous infiltration. Diagnosis is confirmed by detection of the chromosomal translocation t(17;22). The differential diagnosis should include benign myxoid lesions with spindle-shaped cells (myxoid neurofibroma, superficial angiomyxoma, mucous cyst), malignant myxoid lesions with spindle-shaped...
