Sumario:KEY CLINICAL MESSAGE: Intramuscular myxoma (IMM) is a benign soft tissue tumor of mesenchymal origin that occurs mainly in skeletal muscles which can be removed through surgery after diagnosis. ABSTRACT: Intramuscular myxoma (IMM) is a benign soft tissue tumor of mesenchymal origin that typically occurs in skeletal muscles. Its diagnosis is based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and histopathologic evaluation of the lesion. In our report, we describe the case of a 60‐year‐old female with an IMM in the supinator muscle of the right forearm, which was confirmed by MRI and histopathologic examination. Following surgery to remove the mass, a follow‐up confirmed the patient's recovery and the absence of movement limitations in the elbow joint.
