Abstract:
A case of extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma with intracisternal microtubules is presented. The microtubules were generally straight, parallel, closely packed, and evenly spaced, but they did not form geometric arrays. Aggregates of stromalike myxoid material were present in the cisternae and the adjacent cytoplasm. Microtubules were never found within the cytoplasm. A similar ultrastructural appearance was seen in 4 of 10 other examples of extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma.
