Abstract
A case of infantile digital fibromatosis (IDF) in a 3‐year‐old girl is reported. Two tumours were present on the left fourth toe and one over the lateral aspect of the left heel. Histological examination revealed that the tumour cells contained intracytoplasmic inclusion bodies, characteristic for this condition. The tumours showed spontaneous regression without therapy.This publication has 15 references indexed in Scilit:
