Abstract
A 21-year-old man with a history of an excised soft tissue mass of the groin and spotty cutaneous pigmentation underwent excision of nodules of the right lower and left upper eyelids. The patient subsequently had a cutaneous mass of the left ear removed. All excised lesions were classified as myxomas. A diagnosis of multiple myxoma, spotty pigmentation, and endocrine overactivity (Carney's) complex was made.
