Elastofibroma dorsi--a rare pseudotumor arising in the subscapular region in elderly people--was found twice in the biopsy specimen from women 51 and 65 years of age respectively. Another two bulky elastofibromas were displayed bilaterally in the subscapular region in a woman 85 years of age in the course of systematic examination of subscapular regions in a series of 120 autopsies. Microscopic changes similar to elastofibroma were found in 9,8 per cent in females and 6,7 per cent in males, all at least 57 years old. Bilateral changes were found 4 times. Analogous study in Finland noted much higher incidence of those so called subclinical elastofibromas (24,4 per cent in females, 11,2 per cent in males). The possible causes of differences between finnish and presented study as well as light and electron microscopic findings in elastofibroma are discussed.
背部弹力纤维瘤——一种罕见的发生于老年人肩胛下区域的假瘤——分别在两名51岁和65岁女性的活检标本中被发现。在对120例尸体进行一系列肩胛下区域的系统检查过程中，一名85岁女性的双侧肩胛下区域出现了另外两个较大的弹力纤维瘤。在至少57岁的人群中，女性有9.8%、男性有6.7%发现了类似弹力纤维瘤的微观变化。双侧变化被发现了4次。芬兰的类似研究指出，那些所谓的亚临床弹力纤维瘤的发病率要高得多（女性为24.4%，男性为11.2%）。文中讨论了芬兰研究与本研究结果差异的可能原因以及弹力纤维瘤的光镜和电镜检查结果。
