A case of intramuscular myxoma, extended in the lumbar erector spinae muscles, is reported. This soft tissue tumor is rare, about one hundred observations are indexed in the literature. The clinical findings are nonspecific, magnetic resonance imaging reveals few characteristics, and finally a histological examination is required, after surgical removal, to pinpoint the diagnosis. Recurrence is uncommon, but a systematic follow-up is necessary.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008279 Magnetic Resonance Imaging Non-invasive method of demonstrating internal anatomy based on the principle that atomic nuclei in a strong magnetic field absorb pulses of radiofrequency energy and emit them as radiowaves which can be reconstructed into computerized images. The concept includes proton spin tomographic techniques.

D009232 Myxoma A benign neoplasm derived from connective tissue, consisting chiefly of polyhedral and stellate cells that are loosely embedded in a soft mucoid matrix, thereby resembling primitive mesenchymal tissue. It occurs frequently intramuscularly where it may be mistaken for a sarcoma. It appears also in the jaws and the skin. (From Stedman, 25th ed) Angiomyxoma,Angiomyxomas,Myxomas
