A 1-Year-Old Boy With Paraspinal Elastofibroma: The Youngest Diagnosed Elastofibroma.

Abstract

Elastofibroma is a benign and slow-growing soft tissue tumor that classically presents as an ill-defined solitary mass at the inferior pole of the scapula in the fifth and sixth decades of life for women. This tumor can be rarely seen in childhood, but it has not been reported in the infantile age group to date. To our knowledge, this case represents the first report of elastofibroma in the infantile age group. The aim of this report is to present a paravertebral elastofibroma in a 14-month-old patient and discuss the clinical features and treatment modalities.
