Abstract

Solitary cutaneous myofibromas have been reported in patients of all ages. Infantile and adult forms are distinguished by age of onset, location of lesions, and the potential for infantile myofibromas to regress. We report a case of a 17-year-old girl with a solitary myofibroma on the right leg that presented as a partially regressed, atrophic plaque with multiple surrounding papules. Unusual features of this case include the tumor size, simultaneous regression and proliferation, patient age, and gender.
