Farber Disease Misdiagnosed as Hemangioendothelioma / 소아외과

ABSTRACT

Farber disease (FD) is a rare lysosomal storage disorder that shows autosomal recessive inheritance. We report the case of a 58-month-old girl with FD, who was misdiagnosed with epithelioid hemangioendothelioma. The patient had undergone five surgeries for sacrococcygeal masses and three surgeries for scalp masses owing to misdiagnosis. Here, we describe this rare case of FD.
