| A final diagnosis of myxoma was made on the basis of histologic and immunohistochemical studies. |
|
| They concluded that this was a case of malignant transformation of cardiac myxoma, but it could also have been multiple tumor emboli. |
|
| The radiographic differential diagnosis included odontogenic myxoma, desmoplastic fibroma, and myofibromatosis. |
|
| Searching for the source of embolic material resulted in the discovery of a cardiac myxoma in the left atrium. |
|
| The myxoma virus subsequently was released among the rabbit populations and greatly reduced them. |
|
| In the nineteen-fifties, the country began introducing lethal diseases, including the myxoma virus, into the population. |
|
| They survived and, with panic averted, the government initiated a pest-control campaign using the myxoma virus. |
|
| Interspecies interactions are necessary to maintain population levels of moderate size, and they function in most biological communities in much the same way that the rabbit population was controlled by myxoma virus. |
|
| Fletcher described a recurrent myxoma in a 66 year old man involving the intermetacarpal space of the hand with minor recurrences over 15 years. |
|
| The evolution of myxoma virus in rabbits in Australia shows how quickly coevolution of parasites and hosts can proceed to a new outcome, in this case intermediate virulence. |
|
| When the myxoma virus was introduced into Australia in 1950 to control rabbit populations, it was highly virulent and caused death in almost all infected rabbits within two weeks. |
|
| The European rabbit, on the other hand, can be devastated by the myxoma virus. |
|
| We present an unusual case of odontogenic myxoma that involved the maxilla, and we review the clinical, radiographic, and histologic characteristics of this case. |
|
| Recurrence has been reported in a review of 17 paediatric cases with myxoma reported between 1949 and 1987, following enucleation but not radical surgery. |
|
| The patient's mother has Carney syndrome, with lentigines, cardiac myxoma, fibroadenoma of the breast, and a fibroepithelial polyp of the external auditory canal. |
