Mediastinal Fibromatosis -One Case Report-
|
|
|
|
|
Abstract
|
|
|
Fibromatosis, a broad group of fibrous proliferations of similar microscopic appearance, show intermediate biological behavior between benign fibrous lesion and fibrosarcoma. They are characterized by the infiltrative growth and the tendency
toward
recurrence, but they never metastasize. The mediastinal fibromatosis has been extremely rarely reported. We experienced a case of anterior mediastinal fibromatosis ingrowing onto the anterior chest wall in 2-year-old female. A radical surgical
resection
and anterior chest wall reconstruction was performed successfully.
