Myxofibrosarcoma of the Breast: A Case Report
Development of a myxofibrosarcoma in the breast tissue is extremely rare. Reported here is a case of myxofibrosarcoma found in the left breast tissue of a male in his late fifties. The patient first underwent tumor resection, followed by a left mastectomy with the reconstruction of the vastus latera...

description | Development of a myxofibrosarcoma in the breast tissue is extremely rare. Reported here is a case of myxofibrosarcoma found in the left breast tissue of a male in his late fifties. The patient first underwent tumor resection, followed by a left mastectomy with the reconstruction of the vastus lateralis valve. The tumor comprised atypical spindle-shaped cells in a myxoid matrix with elongated blood vessels. Myxofibrosarcoma was diagnosed based on histology and immunohistochemical examination results performed for differential diagnosis. At two years and two months after the mastectomy, no local occurrence or metastasis had occurred. |
