Congenital fibrosarcoma masquerading as congenital hemangioma: report of two cases

L M Boon et al. J Pediatr Surg. 1995 Sep.

Abstract

The authors report on two infants who had large congenital fibrosarcomas that initially were believed to be hemangiomas. Although hemangioma and congenital fibrosarcoma can have a similar presentation, their treatment is dissimilar. The authors review the anatomic findings, hematologic differences, and radiological clues that can help to differentiate congenital fibrosarcoma from congenital hemangioma.
