[Fibrous hamartoma in infancy and childhood: study of 3 cases, one of them with multiple lesions].
We present three cases of Fibrous Hamartoma of infancy, a pediatric benign fibrous proliferation. The patients were two females (10 months and 6 and half years old) and one male (18 months old). The location was characteristic in two cases: axillae and the fore aspect of the chest wall; the other case corresponds to three separated lesions located at the pubic region. The tumoral diameters were between 0.5 and 3.5 cms. Two of the five tumors were adhered to the skin and fascia. In only one case the lesion was congenital. As it usually occurs, the three cases were diagnosed after the pathological study of the surgically exercised lesions, because the rarity of this entity. That turns exceptional if the lesions are multiple.
