Abstract
A 4-year-old boy presented with a mass in the left groin. Radiographic examination demonstrated that the soft-tissue mass contained calcification and was encroaching on the left femur. The pre-biopsy clinico-radiographic diagnosis was that of some sort of sarcoma. The pathological findings identified the mass as infantile myofibromatosis. This case serves to stress the need for greater caution in the clinico-radiographic diagnosis of soft-tissue tumors.
