LETTER TO THE EDITORS MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING OF LOW-GRADE FIBROMYXOID SARCOMA

Low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma (LGFMS) is a rare soft-tissue tumor with a deceptively benign histologic ap-pearance affecting predominantly young adults during the fourth decade of life1. Low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma has a predilection for involving deep soft tissues of the thigh, inguinal region, or chest wall, affecting less frequently the shoulder or axilla1. Local postsurgical recurrence and metastases to lungs and bone are frequently seen1. The sur-gical management, histopathologic findings, and biologi-cal behavior of LGFMS have been outlined in the litera-ture1,2. There are very few reports on the magnetic reso-nance (MR) imaging features of LGFMS3,4. We present the MR imaging features of a surgically confirmed case of LGFMS affecting the shoulder. A 30-year-old man presented with a 20-year history o
