  • Title: Infantile digital fibromatosis: our experience and long-term results.
    Author: Spingardi O, Zoccolan A, Venturino E.
    Journal: Chir Main; 2011 Feb; 30(1):62-5. PubMed ID: 21276743.
    Abstract:
    Infantile fibromatosis is an uncommon benign proliferation of myofibroblasts in the dermal tissue on the digits and toes with a marked tendency for recurrence. Inclusion bodies in the cytoplasm of neoplastic fibroblasts are a characteristic histologic feature of this condition. The tumor may often resolve spontaneously. There is very little written in the literature on this subject, with only a few or isolated cases having been described. We report our experience of seven cases of recurrent infantile fibromatosis that underwent surgical treatment.
