Popis: Intramuscular Myxoma(IM) is a rare benign soft tissue tumor, and its etiology and histology source is still unclear. It is important to understand the pathological components of IM and its corresponding imaging features, as well as performing accurate and careful imaging assessments of IM before surgery. We present a case of a 43-year-old male who presented a lump in his left thigh and gradually enlarged during the past 8 years. The patient underwent CT, MRI, and CTA examined and was later pathologically confirmed as IM. This article will combine the literature,to explore the imaging manifestations and its pathological basis of intramuscular myxoma.
