Infantile myofibromatosis is a rare mesenchymal disorder of infancy and childhood characterized by the formation of tumors in the soft tissues, muscle, bone, and viscera. Disease limited to the soft tissues, muscle, and bone has a good prognosis, and excision is curative; however, visceral involvement may be fatal. We present a case of infantile myofibromatosis in a 1-year-old boy and review the literature.
