Giant-cell fibroblastoma in a patient with a bone-marrow transplant.
A case of an epigastric giant-cell fibroblastoma is reported in a 6-year-old girl who had undergone a bone-marrow transplant for severe combined immunodeficiency secondary to adenosine deaminase deficiency. A small subcutaneous nodule had been excised from the epigastrium at age 12 months.
