Calcifying Myxoma
A CASE REPORT
JAMES W. MILGRAM M.D.1 and
RICHARD E. PREININGER M.D.1
1 From the Department of Pathology, The Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore
1. A large myxoma of the popliteal region has been reported.
2. Scattered areas of calcification occurred within this lesion.
3. It is suggested that the calcification was due to a biochemical change in the protein fibers rather than to degeneration.
