Superficial Acral Fibromyxoma is a rare tumor of soft tissues. It is a relatively new
entity described in 2001 by Fetsch et al. It probably represents a fibrohistiocytic
tumor with less than 170 described cases. We bring a new case of SAF on the 5th toe
of the right foot, in a 43-year-old woman. After surgical excision with safety
margins which included the nail apparatus, it has not recurred (22 months of follow
up). We carried out a review of the location of all SAF published up to the present
day.
Local flaps are the standard procedure to reconstruct facial defects. As it occurs in
any surgical procedure, the incision should be planned so that scars are located in
the minimum skin tension lines. We report two cases of O to Z flaps in the supra and
infraciliary regions. One of them is a hatchet flap.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
