We report an uncommon case of a 76-year-old woman who presented with lower back pain, an intermittent L5 radiculopathy and a right palpable paraspinal mass. Imaging studies revealed a 7-cm lumbar paraspinal pseudo-cystic soft tissue tumour developed in the paravertebral musculature, without a clear radiological diagnosis. Gross total surgical resection was performed, resulting in complete resolution of pain. Histopathological studies revealed an intramuscular (IM) myxoma.

With a low positive predictive value of radiological work-up and a poor yield of percutaneous biopsies, surgery remains the mainstay treatment for these rare soft tissue tumours of the lumbar spine. Intramuscular myxomas show excellent postoperative results.

肌内腰椎粘液瘤一例:脊柱软组织肿瘤术前诊断的不确定性

我们报告了一个不常见的病例,一名 76 岁的女性出现腰痛、间歇性 L5 神经根病和右侧可触及的椎旁肿块。影像学研究显示,在椎旁肌肉组织中出现了一个 7 厘米长的腰椎椎旁假性囊性软组织肿瘤,但没有明确的放射学诊断。进行了总的手术切除,导致疼痛完全消退。组织病理学研究显示肌肉内 (IM) 粘液瘤。

由于放射检查的阳性预测值低且经皮活检的产量低,手术仍然是这些罕见的腰椎软组织肿瘤的主要治疗方法。肌内粘液瘤显示出良好的术后效果。
