ResumoWe report a case of malignant lymphoma in the soft tissues exhibiting prominent myxoid stromal changes and cord‐like cellular arrangement, mimicking the architectural as well as cytological features of myxoid chondrosarcoma, except for the absence of tumour lobulation. The only clue to the possible lymphomatous nature of the lesion was the past history of lymphoma. Immunohistochemical studies showed that this represented a B‐cell lymphoma, staining positively for leucocyte common antigen and five B‐lineage markers L26, MB2, B1 (CD20), B4 (CD19) and To15 (CD22). We conclude that malignant lymphoma should not be excluded from consideration when one encounters a myxoid tumour.
