ABSTRACT
Infantile myofibromatosis is a myofibroblastic tumor of childhood which preferentially arises in the dermis, subcutis, muscle, bone, and occasionally viscera. The disorder is usually divided into two forms, solitary and multicentric type, and the clinical course and prognosis are known to be excellent except case with visceral involvement. It is very unfamiliar in neurosurgical field. The authors present an unusual case of solitary infantile myofibromatosis occurring in right temporal bone in aafour-month-old female infant who underwent surgical excision and showed on excellent clinical course without any other adjuvant treatment. The authors propose that this disease entity should be included in differential diagnosis when neurosurgeons meet infant or child whose radiological appearance is similar to finding described.
