ABSTRACT
Superficial acral fibromyxoma is a rare, distinctive soft tissue neoplasm most often located in the periungal region of the fingers and toes. This tumor was recently recognized as a distinct clinicopathological entity and since then quite a few cases have been reported. These tumors are composed of stellate and spindle cells arranged in a loose form, with a fascicular growth pattern, and occur mostly in middle-aged adults. However in our case, the lesion developed in 9-year-old male, who had a history trauma. Although the exact pathogenesis of superficial acral fibromyxoma has not yet been clarified, it is possible that the fibroblast hyperplasia in the lesion could be triggered by trauma. We suggest this case which occurred in a 9-year-old patient, triggered by trauma, is a peculiar and interesting event.
