Ogawa H Clinical, histopathologic and electronmicroscopic findings in a case of congenital
localized multiple fibromatosis of interscapular region are presented. This I 0 year-old Japanese
girl developed this lesion since she was 3 weeks old, metastases have never been observed. The
histological and electron-microscopic features point to the hamartomous origin of this tumor with
partial differentiation of its cells towards myofibroblasts and atypical fibroblasts. The differential
diagnosis from other soft tissue tumors in infancy and early childhood is discussed.
