Despite being the most common fibrous tumour of infancy, infantile myofibromatosis is still sufficiently rare for the diagnosis not to be apparent to many clinicians. We present the data from the 12 cases seen in our institute over the last 14 years and highlight three cases, the first a "typical" case, then a retroperitoneal myofibroma that presented with duodenal obstruction and finally one that presented as an isolated scrotal mass. We have also reviewed the literature on the subject.
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.
