Background:

Myxofibrosarcoma is a rare soft tissue sarcoma predominantly affecting elderly individuals.
Primary mesenteric myxofibrosarcoma is exceptionally uncommon, with this case representing the fourth documented instance.

Observation:

A 62-year-old male presented with an abdominal mass, urinary frequency, and abdominal pressure.
Imaging studies, including CT and MRI, identified a mesenteric lesion.
Preoperative diagnosis suggested a malignant myxoid tumor.

Findings:

Histopathological and immunohistochemical analyses confirmed mesenteric myxofibrosarcoma.
The patient underwent curative resection with wide margins.
Postoperative recovery was uneventful, with no relapse observed over a three-year follow-up period.

Implications:

Definitive diagnosis of mesenteric myxofibrosarcoma solely via CT or MRI is challenging.
Surgical resection with adequate margins is the optimal management strategy for suspected malignant mesenteric tumors.
This case contributes to the limited understanding of mesenteric myxofibrosarcoma presentation and management.
