Multicentric infantile myofibromatosis with spontaneous regression

We report a patient with multicentric infantile myofibromatosis who showed remarkable regression of the lesions. This 7-month-old male was admitted for evaluation of generalized subcutaneous tumor nodules. A radiographic bone survey revealed radiolucent lytic areas in the skull, axis, rib, humerus, femur, ilium, and tibia that resembled a primary neoplasm with multiple metastases. An exisional biopsy, however, led to a diagnosis of infantile myofibromatosis. All the subcutaneous nodules regressed spontaneously within 1 year and 9 months. Correspondence to: Y. Yamaguchi
