Myxomas are benign soft tissue tumors filled with gelatinous material. They can be painful and occur in many different parts of the body. In this episode we discuss the common presentation, treatment, management and follow up after a diagnosis with Myxoma. We also discuss the differential diagnosis for myxoma which includes malignant tumors that should be ruled out when making the diagnosis.
