[Bilateral dorsal elastofibroma].
Elastofibroma dorsi is a slowly-growing benign tumor which usually occurs at the inferior angle of the scapula. It may be more of a degenerative process than a neoplasia. We seek, through our observations and a review of the literature, to clarify the characteristics of this tumor and its modes of management. We think that all doctors should be aware of this condition, in order to treat it correctly.
