Fibroepithelial stromal polyp of vagina in pregnancy - A mimicker

A rare mesenchymal neoplasm of the lower female genital tract, fibroepithelial stromal tumor, may be confused with other more aggressive lesions. The appearance in pregnancy may further complicate a normal vaginal delivery and lead to confusion with a more unfavorable diagnosis. Even on histological examination, it is pertinent to rule put other stromal tumors of the region. To avoid overdiagnosis, the pathologist must be aware of the specific histomorphology. We report a case of fibroepithelial stromal polyp in a 32-year-old pregnant woman as an incidental finding during a routine antenatal check-up.

Tumor filodes bilateral, una rara forma de manifestación clínica: reporte de caso / Bilateral phyllodes tumor, a rare form of clinical presentation: A case report

Resumen ANTECEDENTES: La incidencia de tumores filodes es del 0.3 al 1% de todos los tumores primarios de la mama. Su presentación bilateral puede ser sincrónica o asincrónica y es excepcional. Estos tumores se clasifican (OMS) en fibroepiteliales, benignos, limítrofes o malignos. Aparecen en mujeres con límites muy amplios de edad, aunque lo más frecuente es entre los 35 y 55 años. El diagnóstico definitivo se establece con base en el reporte histopatológico. Su tratamiento es quirúrgico. CASO CLÍNICO: Paciente de 50 años, con antecedentes obstétricos de dos embarazos y dos cesáreas. Acudió a consulta debido a la aparición de una masa palpable en ambas mamas. Carecía de antecedentes relevantes para cáncer de mama. Con base en la mastografía se determinó que se trataba de un tumor categoría BI-RADS 4A. La biopsia excisional, con estudio transoperatorio, determinó que era un tumor filodes de bajo grado (benigno). Se procedió a la extirpación de ambos tumores, con márgenes libres suficientes, a fin de disminuir el riesgo de recidivas. Se determinó un plan de seguimiento con mastografía anual en las que se ha obtenido la categoría BI-RADS 2. Hasta el momento, la paciente permanece libre de enfermedad. CONCLUSIONES: Los tumores filodes son sumamente raros y más aún su aparición bilateral. Es importante integrar un diagnóstico temprano y efectuar un correcto procedimiento quirúrgico que evite las recidivas porque éstas tienden a ser cada vez más agresivas. Sigue siendo motivo de controversia la indicación de radioterapia y quimioterapia en estos tumores, que solo se reservan como tratamiento alternativo ante tumores sumamente agresivos.

Abstract BACKGROUND: The incidence of phyllodes tumors is 0.3% to 1% of all primary breast tumors. Their bilateral presentation may be synchronous or asynchronous and is exceptional. These tumors are classified (WHO) as fibroepithelial, benign, borderline or malignant. They appear in women with very wide age limits, although the most frequent is between 35 and 55 years of age. The definitive diagnosis is established based on the histopathological report. Treatment is surgical. CLINICAL CASE: 50-year-old patient with obstetric history of two pregnancies and two cesarean sections. She came for consultation due to the appearance of a palpable mass in both breasts. She had no relevant history of breast cancer. Based on the mastography it was determined to be a BI-RADS 4A category tumor. The excisional biopsy, with trans-operative study, determined that it was a low-grade (benign) phyllodes tumor. Both tumors were excised, with sufficient free margins, in order to reduce the risk of recurrence. A follow-up plan was determined with annual mastography in which BI-RADS category 2 has been obtained. So far, the patient remains free of disease. CONCLUSIONS: Phyllodes tumors are extremely rare and even more so their bilateral occurrence. It is important to integrate an early diagnosis and to perform a correct surgical procedure to avoid recurrences because they tend to be more and more aggressive. The indication of radiotherapy and chemotherapy in these tumors remains controversial and is only reserved as an alternative treatment for highly aggressive tumors.

Core needle biopsy in fibroepithelial tumors: predicting factors for phyllodes tumors

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical and imaging predictive factors for the diagnosis of phyllodes tumors in patients with inconclusive results from core needle biopsy (fibroepithelial lesions). METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed data of patients who underwent surgical excision of breast lesions previously diagnosed as fibroepithelial lesions. Numeric variables were analyzed using the Shapiro-Wilk and t-tests, and categorical variables were analyzed using the chi-square and Fisher's exact tests. Multivariate logistic regression was performed to calculate odds ratios and detect predictive factors for the diagnosis of PT. RESULTS: A total of 89 biopsy samples were obtained from 77 patients, of which 43 were confirmed as fibroadenomas, 43 as phyllodes tumors, and 3 as other benign, non-fibroepithelial breast lesions. The mean tumor size was 3.61 cm (range, 0.8-10 cm) for phyllodes tumors and 2.4 cm (range, 0.8-7.9 cm) for fibroadenomas. The predictive factor for phyllodes tumor diagnosis was lesion size >3 cm (p<0.001). CONCLUSION: Our data indicate that fibroepithelial lesions of the breast larger than 3 cm are more likely to be phyllodes tumors.

An audit and clinicopathological study of fibroepithelial lesions of the breast at a tertiary care centre and comparison with WHO grading

Background: Mammary fibroepithelial lesions encompass a wide spectrum of tumors ranging from an indolent fibroadenoma to potentially fatal malignant phyllodes tumor (PT). The criteria used for their classification based on morphological assessment are often challenging to apply and there is no consensus as to what constitutes an adequate resection margin. The aims of the study were to study histopathological spectrum of fibroepithelial lesions of breast at tertiary care centre, to stratify and classify various fibroepithelial lesions into fibroadenomas and PT, reclassify all confirmed cases of PT seen in the study period according to standard histopathological WHO criteria.Methods: Records and slides of fibroepithelial lesions of the breast received at the department between January 2016 and August 2019 were retrieved and reviewed.Results: A total 891 fibroepithelial lesions of breast were diagnosed during this duration. Out of these, 826 (92.7%) were fibroadenoma and its variants, 34 (3.8%) cases were of fibroadenomatoid mastopathy and 31(3.5%) were PT. Among all PT, 8 (25.8%) were borderline and 4 (12.9%) were malignant, rest (61.3%) were benign.Conclusions: Fibroepithelial tumours of the breast are a heterogenous group of lesions ranging from fibroadenoma at the benign end of the spectrum to malignant PT. There are overlapping histologic features among various subtypes, and transformation and progression to a more malignant phenotype may also occur. Given the significant clinical differences within various subtypes, accurate pathologic classification is important for appropriate management. Although some immunohistochemical markers may be useful in this differential diagnosis, histomorphology still remains the gold standard.

Evaluation of Role of Tru-Cut Biopsy in the Diagnosis of Clinically Palpable Breast Lumps

Many diseases affect the breast that range from inflammatory conditions, benign lesions to malignant lesions, most of which present as lumps in the breast. Breast lumps are one of the frequent complaints that we come across in surgical OPDs. Breast lumps not only create apprehension but also can cause unacceptable pain and impairment if they are found to be malignant. Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC), Tru-Cut biopsy, incision biopsy and excision biopsy are the pathological investigations available for the diagnosis of breast lesions. This study is done to evaluate the role of Tru-Cut biopsy in diagnosing the breast lesions and compare it with FNAC and histopathology.METHODSThis prospective study is conducted in the Department of General Surgery at a tertiary care centre from September 2015 to November 2016 among patients attending surgical OPD and admitted in general surgical wards with clinically palpable breast lumps.RESULTSThe sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV and diagnostic accuracy of FNAC were 86.36%, 93.75%, 90.47%, 90.90% and 90.74 % respectively. For Tru-Cut biopsy the values were 95.45%, 100%, 100%, 96.96 % and 98.14 % respectively.CONCLUSIONSTru-Cut biopsy has better efficacy over FNAC in our study. The superiority of Tru-Cut biopsy is particularly seen in Sclerosing, papillary, fibro-epithelial lesions and malignancies with inconclusive and suspicious FNAC results.

Fibroadenoma: Common Neoplasm in an Uncommon Site.

Vulval fibroadenoma is an uncommon benign tumourthat has been suggested to originate from ectopic breasttissue or mammary like anogenital glands. We report acase of a 26 years old woman who presented with alarge, slow growing painless mass in vulvar region since2 months with a clinical diagnosis of sebaceous cyst/Inclusion epidermoid cyst. Excision was done and onhistopathological examination it was reported as ectopicbreast tissue with fibroadenoma and lactational change.

Fibroadenoma/benign phyllodes: a cytologic diagnostic challenge

Background: To study and compare cytomorphological features of histologically proven cases of benign phyllodes and cellular fibroadenoma.Methods: Smears of histologically-proven cases of benign phyllodes and cellular fibroadenoma in one year, were reviewed. The cellular fibroadenoma had epithelial and/or stromal hypercellularity. The stromal and epithelial components as well as the background cells were qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed.Results: Number, cellularity and type of stromal fragments varied significantly in two groups. Higher number, intermediate to large-sized and hypercellular stromal fragments were commonly seen in phyllodes. Hypercellular (3+ cellularity) fragments were seen in 100% cases of phyllodes against 11.1% cases of fibroadenoma. Large-sized stromal fragments were found in 100% of phyllodes while in only 11.1% cases of fibroadenoma. The ratio of number of epithelial to stromal fragments was significantly high (58.5:1) in fibroadenoma against phyllodes (1.3:1). The epithelial architecture, atypia, apocrine metaplasia and presence of cystic macrophages did not very much in the two groups. The cellularity of the dispersed cells in background did not reveal significant difference though the type of cells varied; the proportion of long and short spindle cells was higher in PT group while proportion of oval cells was higher in FA group.Conclusion: The number, cellularity and nature of stromal fragments, ratio of epithelial to stromal fragments, cellularity and type of background cells are helpful in distinguishing benign phyllodes from cellular fibroadenoma. The identification of these features can improve the pickup rate of phyllodes tumor, thereby assisting proper management.

Atypical presentation of fibroepithelial polyp: a report of two cases / Apresentação atípica de pólipo fibroepitelial: um relato de dois casos

ABSTRACT Fibroepithelial polyps are benign non-epithelial tumors arising from mesodermal tissue and are commonly found on the skin. They can develop on the eyelid and surrounding area and rarely appear at other sites. While most cutaneous cases are diagnosed incidentally, the lesions may be symptomatic based on their location. The etiology of fibroepithelial polyps is not fully understood but may involve trauma, chronic irritation, allergic factors, and developmental or congenital causes. Although fibroepithelial polyps are benign lesions, they can be malignant in extremely rare cases. Herein we discuss 2 cases of fibroepithelial polyp with an atypical presentation and their treatment.

RESUMO Pólipos fibroepiteliais são tumores benignos não-epiteliais que surgem do tecido mesodérmico e são comumente encontrados na pele. Eles podem se desenvolver na pálpebra e na área adjacente, e raramente aparecem em outros locais. Embora a maioria dos casos cutâneos seja diagnosticada incidentalmente, as lesões podem ser sintomáticas com base em sua localização. A etiologia dos pólipos fibroepiteliais não é completamente compreendida, mas pode envolver trauma, irritação crônica, fatores alérgicos e causas de desenvolvimento ou congênitas. Apesar dos pólipos fibroepiteliais serem lesões benignas, podem ser malignos em casos extremamente raros. Aqui discutimos 2 casos de pólipo fibroepitelial com uma apresentação atípica e seu tratamento.

Fibroadenoma vulvar: a propósito de un caso clínico / Vulvar fibroadenoma: about a clinical case

RESUMEN El fibroadenoma vulvar es un tumor benigno poco frecuente con muy pocos casos descritos en la literatura. Por lo general, se diagnostica entre los 20 y 70 años. Tiene un buen pronóstico y rara vez recurre después de la escisión. Presentamos un caso de fibroadenoma vulvar, en una mujer de 33 años, manifestado como un tumor localizado, bien definido de partes blandas en el labio mayor izquierdo. La lesión fue extirpada completamente y la histología confirmó un fibroadenoma con marcador de estrógeno positivo.

ABSTRACT Vulvar fibroadenoma is a rare benign tumor with few cases reported in the literature. It usually occurs between 20 and 70 years of age. It has a good prognosis and rarely recurs following excision. We present a case of vulvar fibroadenoma as a localized, well-defined soft tissue mass in the left labium majus of a 33-year-old woman. The mass was excised completely, and histology demonstrated a fibroadenoma positive for estrogen receptor.

Unusual size, topography, and surgical resolution of an acquired fibrokeratoma

Abstract: Acquired fibrokeratoma is a rare benign skin tumor that usually manifests as a slow-growing solitary nodular lesion of the digits. We report a case of plantar acquired fibrokeratoma evidencing its atypical size and topography, in addition to the treatment with simple surgical excision followed by healing by second intention. Nondigital fibrokeratomas may occur in 18% of cases and rarely affect the palmoplantar region. These lesions are usually asymptomatic and show ≥ 3cm in size at the time of diagnosis due to delayed diagnosis. Complete surgical excision is the treatment of choice, which is usually curative. In general, primary closure is chosen; however healing by second intention becomes an option in regions of difficult approach.

Giant Vulvar Fibroepithelial Polyp: A case series / Philippine Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology

@#Fibroepithelial stromal polyp, more commonly known as acrochordon, skin tag, or soft fibroma is a type of mesenchymal tumor occurring among women of reproductive age. Fibroepithelial polyp, although the most common cutaneous tumor, is rare in the vulvovaginal region and there is currently no established protocol in approaching these kinds of lesions. Presented here is a series of cases of gradually enlarging labial masses among reproductive age women. These giant vulvar masses presented as solitary, flesh-colored, polypoid masses, initially non-tender but later becoming associated with local pain. Diagnosis is mainly through history, clinical examination aided by ultrasonography, and histopathologic examination, which would show a central fibrovascular core covered with squamous epithelium. Surgical excision serves as both diagnostic and therapeutic modality for these lesions. Vulvar fibroepithelial polyp do not seem to be as rare as literature says, they are relatively easy to diagnose and presents with benign clinical course.

Tumor phyllodes benigno de la mama. Revisión de la literatura y presentación de un caso / Benign Phyllodes Tumour of the Breast. Literature Review and Case Presentation

El tumor phyllodes es una neoplasia fibroepitelial mamaria poco frecuente, con un componente epitelial benigno y un componente mesenquimal que puede ser benigno o maligno, y representa solo entre el 0,3 y el 0,4 % de todos los tumores mamarios. Aparece fundamentalmente en el sexo femenino, se han reportado a nivel mundial muy pocos casos en hombres, siendo muy raros en las niñas y adolescentes, surge en la cuarta o quinta décadas de la vida. Se presenta el caso de una paciente de 49 años de edad, que acudió a consulta de mastología por presentar una protuberancia que ocupaba los dos cuadrantes externos de la mama izquierda y que histológicamente fue informado por biopsia por parafina como un tumor phyllodes benigno de la mama. Por lo poco frecuente de esta entidad, se considera de valor científico la publicación de este caso.

Phyllodes tumor is an uncommon fibroepithelial neoplasia, with an epithelial benign component and mesenchymal component that can be malignant or benign and represents only 0.3 to 0.4 % of all breast tumours. It appears mainly in the female sex; a few male cases have been reported worldwide and they are unusual in girls and adolescents. It appears during the fourth or fifth decade of life. A case of a 49 year old patient is presented who came to the mastology consultation complaining of a protuberance which occupied the two left breast external quadrants. It was diagnosed by paraffin-embedded biopsy as benign phyllodes tumor of the breast. Due to the infrequent presentation of this entity, the publication of this case is considered of scientific value.

A rare pulmonary benign bi-phasic tumor: a case report of pulmonary adenofibroma and literature review / 北京大学学报(医学版)

Pulmonary adenofibroma is an extremely rare benign primary tumor of the lung,with characteristic bi-phasic differential pattern.They are usually sub-pleural solid pulmonary nodules with clear margins.The tumor is composed of glands and peri-gland stroma.The glands are often quite simple,forming long and narrow tubules,with uniformly monolayer lining cells.Combined papillary or phyllodes structures were reported in some cases.The stromal cells are spindle-shaped and look mild,mixed with the collagen bands.Up till now,only a few cases of pulmonary adenofibroma have been reported all over the world.And because of the limited recognition,this tumor is easily misinterpreted as malignancy in frozen section or biopsy specimens.We reported a new case of pulmonary adenofibroma.The mass peripherally located in the left lobe of the lung,found by chance in a 74-year-old woman.The patient underwent a wedge resection of the left lung by the thoracoscope,because of the slowly gradual enlargement of the mass annually.An oval grayish-white nodule was sub-pleural located in the specimen,with solid and rubbery texture,but without a distinct capsule.Two distinct components of simple glands and mild spindle cell stroma were found to mix together uniformly under the microscope.Collagen bands of various widths evenly surrounded each stromal cell.A few small coarse papillae or phyllodes structures were randomly distributed in some area.The immunohistochemical staining pattern of the glandular cells was accordant with type Ⅱ alveolar epithelium.Stromal cells were positive with CD34,B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2),CD99and estrogen receptor (ER),while S-100,smooth muscle actin (SMA) and all the mesothelium markers were negative.The patient was disease free after the surgery,although the follow-up time was only one year.Besides the new case above,we also reviewed all the reported cases,and tentatively discussed the probable histological origin of pulmonary adenofibroma.

Fibroepithelial polyp of the vulva accompanied by lymphangioma circumscriptum

Fibroepithelial polyp (FEP) and lymphangioma circumscriptum (LC) of the vulva are rare diseases that occur generally in young to middle-aged women. The pathogenesis of FEP is not clearly understood. Several previous cases have suggested that a hormonal influence may be a predisposing condition for developing FEP with or without chronic inflammation. A 68-year-old postmenopausal woman presented with a history of multiple raised lesions on the vulva with a 1-year duration. Additionally, a pedunculated mass had appeared 6 months earlier in the left lower labia minora. The patient underwent simple excision by electrocautery. The final pathological diagnosis was FEP with LC. In this case, the development of FEP was associated only with chronic inflammation induced by LC. Therefore, the case supports the hypothesis that a chronic inflammatory process may be related to the development of FEP even without hormonal influence.

Fibroepithelial Polyp on the Eyelid Margin: A Case Report

PURPOSE: Fibroepithelial polyps on the eyelid or orbit have not been previously reported in Korea. Herein, we report our experience with a case of a primary localized fibroepithelial polyp of the eyelid. CASE SUMMARY: A 78-year-old male patient presented with a round mass on the lower eyelid which has been noticed 1 week prior. There was no pain and no tenderness. The mass was removed and excisional biopsy was performed. Histopathologic examination revealed findings suggestive of a fibroepithelial polyp. There was no local recurrence during 4 months of follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: Fibroepithelial polyp should be considered when determining the type of eyelid mass.

Distant metastases in phyllodes tumours of the breast: an overview

Phyllodes tumours (PTs) of the breast are uncommon fibroepithelial neoplasms, comprising 0.3 ­ 1.0% of all primary breast malignancies in Western countries, but accounting for a higher proportion of primary breast tumours in Asian countries. They are graded as benign, borderline or malignant based on the World Health Organisation (WHO) classification, according to a constellation of 5 histologic parameters. While most PTs carry a good prognosis, malignant and occasionally borderline PTs have the potential to metastasize to distant sites. Although events of distant metastasis are few, the prognosis for such patients is dismal, as they are often unresponsive to chemotherapy with high mortality. This review seeks to provide an overview of this rare but important phenomenon of distant metastases in PTs of the breast (AU)

Diagnosis and treatment of ureteral fibroepithelial polyp / 国际外科学杂志

Objective To improve the experience of diagnosis and evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of the surgical management for ureteral fibroepithelial polyp.Methods The clinical date of 29 patients with ureteral polyps admitted in Peking Union Medical College Hospital during 2001 to 2014 were analysed retrospectively.The patients' age was between 1 1 to 84 years and 19 were male.Twenty patients with frank pain and two patients with hematuria were enrolled.Seven patients were found hydronephrosis.Results Twenty-nine cases were treated surgically.Fifteen cases were treated by ureteroscopic laser ablation,10 cases local resection and reanastomosis,1 case of abnormalities duplex kidney and ureter underwent local resection and ureteroplasty,2 case Partial ureterectomy including the polyps and pyeloplasty,1 cases nephroureterectomy because of giant hydronephrosis and nonfunctional kidney.No recurrences were seen during a mean follow-up of 32 months (range 10-56 mos).No ureteral stricture occurs.Conclusions Ureteral fibroepithelial polyps represent a rare pathology.Local resection is the main treatment.Endoscopic management is recommended to minimize morbidity and complications in treatment of ureteral fibroepithelial polyps.Recurrences seem to be rare in these tumors.

Phyllodes tumor of the breast: a clinic-pathologic study of 77 cases in a Hispanic cohort / Tumor Phyllodes de la mama: Estudio clínico-patológico de 77 casos en una cohorte hispana

Introduction: Breast Phyllodes tumors are rare breast tumors present in less than 1% of new cases of breast cancer, usually occurring among middle-aged women (40-50 yrs). Objective: This study shows diagnostic experience, surgical management and follows up of patients with this disease during a period of ten years in a oncology referral center. Methods: Retrospectively, breast cancer registries at the institution were reviewed, identifying 77 patients with Phyllodes tumors between 2002 and 2012, who had been operated on at the Instituto de Cancerología - Clínica Las Américas, in Medellín (Colombia). Clinical and histopathological data belonging to these cases was captured and analyzed and descriptive statistics were used. Results: The follow up median was 22.5 months (IQR: 10.5-60.0), average age was 47.2 yrs (SD: 12.4), mean tumor size was 3.6 cm (SD: 4.6), 88.3% of the patients (68 cases) presented negative margins and none of them received adjuvant chemotherapy. Of the patients with Phyllodes tumors; 33.8% had benign, 31.2% had borderline and 35.0% had malignant tumor. Disease-free survival was 85.8% and overall survival was 94.5%. Discussion: Reported data in this article is in accordance with what has been reported in worldwide literature. In our cohort even the high mean size of the tumors, the risk of local relapse and metastatic disease is low than previously reported in literature. Trials with longer follow up and molecular trials in Phyllodes tumors are necessary to understand the behavior of these tumors in Hispanics population.

Introducción: Los tumores phyllodes mamarios son Tumores infrecuentes en la mama presentes en menos del 1% de los casos nuevos de cáncer mamario, por lo general ocurre en mujeres de mediana edad (40-50 años) Objetivo: Este estudio muestra la experiencia de diagnóstico, tratamiento quirúrgico y seguimiento de los pacientes con esta variedad de tumor durante un período de diez años en un centro de referencia oncológico. Métodos: Retrospectivamente, los registros de cáncer de mama en la institución fueron revisados, se identificaron 77 pacientes con tumores phyllodes entre 2002 y 2012, que habían sido operados en el Instituto de Cancerología - Clínica Las Américas, en Medellín (Colombia). Los datos clínicos e histopatológicos pertenecientes a estos casos fueron recolectados y analizados utilizando técnicas de estadística descriptivas. Resultados: La mediana de seguimiento fue de 22.5 meses (RIC: 10.5-60.0), la Media de edad fue de 47.2 años (DE: 12.4), tamaño medio del tumor fue de 3.6 cm (DE: 4.6), 88.3% de los pacientes (68 casos) presentaron márgenes negativos y ninguno de ellos recibieron quimioterapia adyuvante. De los pacientes con tumores phyllodes; 33.8% fueron benignos, 31.2% Borderline y 35.0% phyllodes maligno. Supervivencia libre de enfermedad fue 85.8% y la supervivencia global fue de 94.5%. Discusión: Los datos reportados en este artículo están acordes con lo que se ha reportado en la literatura mundial. En nuestra cohorte, a pesar de que el tamaño promedio de los tumores fue mayor, el riesgo de recidiva local y las tasas de enfermedad metastásica es menor que el reportado previamente en la literatura. Los ensayos con seguimiento más prolongado, y los ensayos moleculares en tumores phyllodes son necesarios para comprender de una manera mas precisa el comportamiento de estos tumores en la población hispana.

Multiple soft fibromas of the lid.

Fibromas are benign tumors that are composed of fibrous or connective tissue. They can grow in all organs, arising from mesenchymal tissue (a type of loose connective tissue). The term “fibroblastic” or “fibromatous” is used to describe tumors like the fibroma. This 69‑year‑old male presented to us with giant, multiple, very slowly progressive, painless, noninflammatory, soft, trans‑illuminant, pedunculated lid swellings with a two decade history. There were no other swellings on the body. He was clinically normal on systemic examination except for the immature cataracts in both eyes. The diagnosis was confirmed on histopathology. Simple excision removed all the soft fibromas virtually leaving no scar. A review of literature world‑wide using Medline Plus/PubMed revealed this to be the only reported case of multiple giant soft fibromas of the lid.
