(A) A T1-weighted axial MR image with fat saturation shows the intramuscular location of the lesion. (B) A T2-weighted axial MR image with fat saturation shows the high water content of the lesion. (C) A sagittal STIR MR image illustrates the large craniocaudal size of the lesion. (D) A T1-weighted sagittal MR image illustrates the blood vessels supplying the lesion.

(A) A low-power histology image shows the sheets of cells with eosinophilic to clear cytoplasm punctuated by a fine vascular network (arrow) (stain, hematoxylin and eosin; original magnification, ×20). (B) A higher-power view demonstrates the cells with prominent cytoplasmic clearing known as clear cells (stain, hematoxylin and eosin; original magnification, ×40). (C) Immunohistochemistry staining illustrates the strong and diffuse cytoplasmic staining for CAM 5.2 (original magnification, ×20).
