MR Findings of Desmoplastic Fibroblastoma: A Case Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
fibrous, soft-tissue tumor first described by Evans (1) in 1995. This tumor is clinically and morphologically distinct and was deemed completely benign in a few reported series (1-3). There have also been published case reports on the MR features of desmoplastic fibroblastoma (4-8). We herein present a case of desmoplastic fibroblastoma with special focus on the MR findings, because they are distinct from that previously published.

Natural evolution of desmoplastic fibroblastoma on magnetic resonance imaging: a case report
INTRODUCTION Desmoplastic fibroblastoma (collagenous fibroma) is a recently described tumor thought to arise predominantly from subcutaneous tissue or skeletal muscle. The natural evolution of this tumor on magnetic resonance imaging has never been described, to the best of our knowledge. We herein report a case of desmoplastic fibroblastoma arising in the thigh and show the longitudinal magnet...
متن کاملDesmoplastic fibroblastoma of the left upper arm
An elderly female patient presented to the clinic with a several-week history of a mass in her left upper arm that was tender to the touch. The mass was initially thought to be a schwannoma of the left radial nerve based on imaging and was surgically removed. The pathology report revealed an uncommon diagnosis of desmoplastic fibroblastoma.

Collagenous fibroma (desmoplastic fibroblastoma) is a rare benign fibrous soft tissue tumor. This lesion commonly presents with painless, non-tender, mobile and slowly growing mass in subcutaneous tissue or skeletal muscle at various anatomic location. On magnetic resonance image (MRI), the mass shows area of low signal intensity on both T1and T2weighted pulse sequences. This low signal intensi...

Collagenous fibroma (desmoplastic fibroblastoma) is a recently described rare benign tumor affecting mainly males in the fifth through seventh decades. This tumor occurs predominantly in the peripheral sites, with predilection for upper and lower extremities. The patients present with a painless mass of involving subcutis, with one quarter of all cases involving skeletal muscle. Both radiograph...
متن کاملDesmoplastic fibroblastoma of the thigh
Desmoplastic fibroblastoma (DF) is a rare benign fibroblastic soft tissue tumor.1 The tumour is prevalent in adult men (4:1), aged 50 to 60 years, with wide anatomic distribution, and tipically it arises in the subcutaneous or subfascial tissue, mainly, of skeletal muscles. The tumor behaves in a benign fashion, presents a slowly growing with no recurrence or metastases, it can achieve a large ...
