Intramuscular Myxomas are rare benign soft tissue tumors which usually occur between the ages 40 and 70 years and are more common among females. A thorough history and examination can help with diagnosis and it can be confirmed via histological examination. A 40-year-old female presented with a swelling in the medial aspect of right thigh which measured about 5 × 5 cm. Ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, and histopathology examination confirmed the diagnosis and a complete surgical resection was performed to remove the mass. Intramuscular myxoma should be included in differential diagnosis of sarcomas, hemangioma, desmoid tumor, clear cell sarcoma, and lipomas. Magnetic resonance imaging should be the investigation of choice, and histopathology remains the gold standard of investigation. Complete surgical excision with negative margins is the treatment of choice.
肌内黏液瘤是一种罕见的良性软组织肿瘤，通常发生在40至70岁之间，女性更为常见。详尽的病史和检查有助于诊断，可通过组织学检查确诊。一名40岁女性右大腿内侧出现一个约5×5厘米的肿块。超声、磁共振成像和组织病理学检查确诊后，进行了完整的手术切除以移除肿块。肌内黏液瘤应列入肉瘤、血管瘤、硬纤维瘤、透明细胞肉瘤和脂肪瘤的鉴别诊断中。磁共振成像应为首选检查方法，组织病理学仍是检查的金标准。手术切缘阴性的完整手术切除是首选治疗方法。
