Myxoid lesions occasionally appear on the pathologist's desk. The differential diagnosis is very large, as many lesions have a myxoid variant.
Myxoid stroma
Features:
- Stroma has a pale/blue appearance.
Gastrointestinal pathology
Gynecologic pathology
Soft tissue pathology
- Low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma.
- Myxoid liposarcoma.
- Spindle cell lipoma.
- Extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma.
- Myxoid chondrosarcoma.
- Aggressive angiomyxoma.
Dermatopathology
- Myxoma.
- Myxoid DFSP.
- Basal cell carcinoma.
- Myxoid neurofibroma.
Breast pathology
Kidney pathology
Renomedullary interstitial cell tumour.
Salivary gland pathology

Neuropathology
Chondromyxoid stroma
Features:
- Cells in pseudonests.
- Surrounding stroma bluish.
