A Case of Myxoma Mimicking Scapulothoracic Bursa

Myxoid soft tissue tumors are an unusually diverse group of neoplasms, most commonly involving the extremities. They are mesenchymal neoplasms characterized by the abundant production of myxoid matrix with a gelatinous appearance. They have varying characteristics in medical imaging and histopatholo...

description Myxoid soft tissue tumors are an unusually diverse group of neoplasms, most commonly involving the extremities. They are mesenchymal neoplasms characterized by the abundant production of myxoid matrix with a gelatinous appearance. They have varying characteristics in medical imaging and histopathology. The prognosis is variable for recurrence. Less regularly, they are found in bone, skin, the genitourinary tract, aponeurotic tissue, and subcutaneous tissue. We present a case of myxomatous tumor at the scapulothoracic region mimicking bursitis.
