Background: Myxoid neurofibromas (NF) are uncommon, benign spindle cell tumors that originate from peripheral nerve sheaths, often posing a diagnostic challenge due to their hypocellularity on cytology specimens. Distinguishing myxoid spindle cell lesions can be challenging, given the broad range of potential differential diagnoses.
Case Presentation: A 26-year-old female with a past medical history of embolized inguinal, flank, and retroperitoneal venolymphatic malformation presented with a left pelvic pain causing significant disability.

Desmoid tumors (DTs) are rare locally aggressive benign soft tissue tumors with an estimated annual incidence of two to four new cases per million people. The giant intra-abdominal mass presents a diagnostic challenge that includes a broad differential diagnosis of gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST), fibrosarcoma, retroperitoneal fibrosis, and other malignancies from adjacent organs. We report a case of a 38-year-old male patient with a giant intra‑abdominal mass.
