Summary Clinical-radiographical analysis of six cases with myxoma of the jaws diagnosed histopathologically was attemped, and the following summary was obtained. 1. All patients presented with either painless swelling or no symptoms, and it is suggested that myxoma of the jaws is not a rapidly growing and is a benign lesion according to their histories and clinical-radiographical findings. 2. Radiographs of six cases showed rather variable appearances and needed to be differentiated from that of ameloblastoma, hemoangioma, giant cell tumor, fibrous dysplasia or dentigerous cyst. 3. Though most of myxomas in the jaws are considered to be of odontogenic origin, odontogenic epithelium was found histopathologically in only one of five cases.
