A myxoid tumor is a connective tissue tumor with a "myxoid" background, composed of clear, mucoid substance.[1]

Atrial myxoma

This tumoral phenotype is shared by many tumoral entities:

* Myxomas
* Atrial myxoma
* Odontogenic myxoma
* Cutaneous myxoma
* Intramuscular myxoma
* Myxoid hamartoma
* Aggressive angiomyxoma
* Myxoid leiomyoma
* Chondromyxoid fibroma
* Myxoid neurofibroma
* Nerve sheath myxoma (neurothekeoma)
* Myxolipoma
* Angiomyofibroblastoma
* Myxoid leiomyosarcoma
* Myxoid liposarcoma
* Lipoblastoma
* Myxofibrosarcoma
* Myxoid cortical adenoma
* Pleomorphic adenoma
* Undifferentiated embryonal sarcoma
* Plexiform angiomyxoid myofibroblastic tumor
* Myxoid plexiform fibrohistiocytic tumor
* Angiomyxolipoma (vascular myxolipoma)
* Parachordoma
* Acral myxoinflammatory fibroblastic sarcoma
