Infantile fibromatosis of the external genitalia: diagnosis and management strategy.
Infantile fibromatosis is a process that is difficult to distinguish from fibrosarcoma. It is found in neonates and infants but only rarely has it been reported to involve the external genitalia or scrotum. A 10-month-old boy is described with histologically proved infantile fibromatosis of the scrotum. Characteristics distinguishing infantile fibromatosis from fibrosarcoma and the appropriate management of this disease are presented.
