Figure 6. Axial T2 magnetic resonance images of a nerve sheath myxoma of the ankle 6 (A) and 12 months (B) after resection, demonstrating gradual resolution of signal abnormality. (A) Axial T2 fat saturation MR image 6 months after resection with bright surface vitamin E marker shows subtle non-masslike increased T2 signal representative of post-excision granulation tissue (arrow). (B) Axial T2 fat saturation MR image performed 12 months after resection with bright surface vitamin E marker shows no resection bed signal abnormality.
