Elastofibroma dorsi is a relatively rare soft-tissue tumour localized at the infra-scapular level and/or subscapular regions. It usually occurs between the fourth and seventh decade of life, and is more common in females. We reviewed sixteen elastofibromas diagnosed in 12 patients (7 females, 58.3%). Four patients had bilateral elastofibromas. The most common symptom was pain. Presumptive diagn...

OBJECTIVES Elastofibroma dorsi (ED) is a rare, benign lesion arising from connective tissue, usually found at the inferior pole of the scapula. To date, only a few small series have been reported in the English literature and there are few data about the long-term outcomes after surgery. Our goal is to contribute a better understanding of this tumour and to determine the long-term outcomes afte...
