Title: Congenital generalized fibromatosis: a case report with roentgen manifestations of the skeleton. Author: Schlangen JT. Journal: Radiol Clin (Basel); 1976; 45(1):18-26. PubMed ID: 819961. Abstract: Congenital generalized fibromatosis is a rare disease. Since the features were described in 1954, 23 cases have been mentioned in the literature. 4 cases that had been reported before that time may retrospectively be said to belong to this syndrome. Congenital generalized fibromatosis resembles clinically as well as roentgenologically neurofibromatosis and may therefore be classified as a hamartomatosis, although the histological distinction of the congenital fibrosarcoma may sometimes be difficult. In this case report, a young patient is described with clinical, roentgenological and histological features of congenital generalized fibromatosis.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
