  • Title: Parapharyngeal inflammatory pseudotumor presenting as fever of unknown origin in a 3-year-old girl.
    Author: Chan YF, Ma LT, Yeung CK, Lam KH.
    Journal: Pediatr Pathol; 1988; 8(2):195-203. PubMed ID: 3413003.
    Abstract:
    A parapharyngeal inflammatory pseudotumor in a 3-year-old girl who presented with high fever, anemia, and weight loss is described. The histologic differentiation from other fibroblastic lesions occurring in the head and neck region of a child is discussed. Symptoms improved dramatically after removal of the mass. The lesion may represent an exaggerated local response to an as yet unidentified agent with concomitant systemic manifestations.
