Abstract
Despite being the most common fibrous tumour of infancy, infantile myofibromatosis is still sufficiently rare for the diagnosis not to be apparent to many clinicians. We present the data from the 12 cases seen in our institute over the last 14 years and highlight three cases, the first a "typical" case, then a retroperitoneal myofibroma that presented with duodenal obstruction and finally one that presented as an isolated scrotal mass. We have also reviewed the literature on the subject.Entities:
