Elastofibroma is a rare benign fibroelastic tumor.
We report a case of a 44-year-old woman, operated 4 months ago for a left infrascapular desmoid tumor and presented for bilateral mass of the left suprascapular and right infrascapular regions which were surgically resected. The diagnosis of elastofibroma was made and also confirmed for the left infrascapular desmoid tumor. Six months later, she presented an asymptomatic left infrascapular recurrence. Monitoring was continued and the patient is still asymptomatic after 24 months.
We highlight the importance of imaging features understanding in order to avoid misdiagnosis and unnecessary surgical resection.
弹力纤维瘤是一种罕见的良性纤维弹性肿瘤。
我们报告一例44岁女性病例,该患者4个月前因左侧肩胛下硬纤维瘤接受手术,现因左侧肩胛上区和右侧肩胛下区出现双侧肿块前来就诊,这些肿块已通过手术切除。诊断为弹力纤维瘤,左侧肩胛下硬纤维瘤也得到了确诊。6个月后,她出现了左侧肩胛下无症状复发。继续进行监测,24个月后患者仍无症状。
我们强调了解影像学特征对于避免误诊和不必要的手术切除的重要性。
