“…La ecografía es el método diagnóstico de elección, evitando la utilización de métodos más costosos o incluso complejos que requieran algún tipo de contraste o radiación innecesaria para el recién nacido. En la ultrasonografía se observa la fibrosis o afectación del músculo esternocleidomastoideo en todos los casos que presentan esta patología (8,9).…”

Introducción: La Fibromatosis Colli es un tumor fibroso congénito benigno que se desarrolla en el músculo esternocleidomastoideo. Se manifiesta clínicamente por hinchazón del cuello y restricción de movimiento del cuello (tortícolis). Objetivo: Describir los aspectos diagnósticos y terapéuticos fundamentales de la Fibromatosis de Colli o Tortícolis Muscular Congénita. Caso Clínico: Se presenta un caso de neonato de sexo femenino de 21 días de nacida mediante parto en presentación podálica. Al examen físico se encuentra masa en cuello de 1,5*2 cm indolora e inclinación de la cabeza hacia la derecha, diagnosticado con ultrasonografía y tomografía de cuello contrastado, sin otros hallazgos. Conclusiones: La Fibromatosis de Colli es una patología que pasa desapercibida en el examen posparto del recién nacido. Es importante que el personal médico la identifique, evitando así complicaciones futuras, como asimetría craneofacial, escoliosis cervical y torácica o alteraciones oculares importantes.

“…RMS in a neonate typically presents with a rapidly growing mass at birth or in the first weeks of life 11 . A high index of suspicion is needed for soft tissue tumors presenting in infancy (Figure 3), especially those that appear vascular, as highly vascularized tumors may mimic infantile hemangiomas 12 . Similarly, there is imaging overlap between RMS and congenital hemangiomas.…”

“…11 A high index of suspicion is needed for soft tissue tumors presenting in infancy (Figure 3), especially those that appear vascular, as highly vascularized tumors may mimic infantile hemangiomas. 12 Similarly, there is imaging overlap between RMS and congenital hemangiomas. Ultrasonographic findings of RMS can differ from that of an infantile hemangioma, but diagnostic specificity is limited.…”

The evaluation of pediatric patients with subcutaneous nodules remains a diagnostic challenge. Pediatric dermatologists are regularly confronted with patients who have a nonspecific nodule. Though most masses that require evaluation are ultimately benign, the possibility of a more aggressive process, including borderline or malignant neoplasms, underscores the pivotal role of the pediatric dermatologist in recognizing these lesions. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of lumps and bumps that are important to recognize to prevent delay in diagnosis or treatment of a serious underlying condition. Clinical clues that may lead the pediatric dermatologist to have a higher index of suspicion for more aggressive lesions are reviewed. Suggestions for evaluation and workup, as well as tips for the difficult to discern lesion, are proposed.
