Abstract

OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this article is to review the classification, clinical presentation, and histopathologic and MRI features of myxoid soft-tissue neoplasms. CONCLUSION. MRI is the modality of choice for characterization of myxoid soft-tissue tumors. A combination of imaging features (including certain characteristic signs), clinical features, and patient demographics can help the radiologist in coming to a specific diagnosis or in narrowing down the differential diagnoses.
