Lipofibromatosis is a benign pediatric soft tissue tumor arising preferentially in the distal extremities. Histologically, the tumor shows abundant adipose tissue admixed with a spindle cell component, often concentrated in septal and perimysial locations. The index case is being presented to discuss the histopathological and immunohistochemical clues to differentiate it from other fibrofatty tumors of childhood. An 11-month-old male child presented with a slowly growing mass on the upper back. MRI findings were suggestive of an adipocytic tumor. Microscopy revealed a lesion composed of mature adipocytes and intervening fibrous bands with infiltration into the adjacent skeletal muscle, features of lipofibromatosis. Lipofibromatosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a pediatric fibrofatty tumor. Accurate diagnosis is essential for proper patient management as incomplete removal of the tumor may result in recurrence.

Review
INTRODUCTION/OBJECTIVES
Pachydermodactyly is a rare, benign fibromatosis located around the proximal interphalangeal joints. It is often misdiagnosed as juvenile idiopathic arthritis and may cause unnecessary treatments and anxiety in patients. The goal of this paper is to describe this condition through all the existing information in the scientific literature.
METHOD
A systematic review and a descriptive study have been conducted. A systematic research was performed in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library and WOS.
RESULTS
Pachydermodactyly was four times more frequent in male subjects and usually started in adolescence. Bilateral presentation was more frequent. History of microtrauma in both hands due to digital manipulation was found in almost half of the patients, many of them showed some neuropsychiatric disorder. In women, the onset happened later, unilateral involvement and family history were more frequent. Swelling of soft tissue without joint implication was found in imaging tests. The progression was usually positive and the treatment included stopping the microtrauma, administrating intralesional corticoids and/or surgery.
CONCLUSIONS
Diagnosis can be established in asymptomatic young patients through a congruent physical exam, regular analytic results and imaging tests that simply show swelling of soft tissue-a biopsy is generally not required for diagnosis. As pachydermodactyly's course is asymptomatic and benign, knowledge about this condition is limited, which increases the likelihood of its underdiagnosis-it is important that clinicians know of pachydermodactyly in order to avoid misdiagnosis.

Parasitic myomas are fibromyomas without anatomical relation to the uterus. It is a rare condition mostly described after laparoscopic fibroid morcellation. This is a case report of a patient with a symptomatic abdominal mass eight years after total abdominal hysterectomy. A parasitic myoma was found in relation to coecum and removed laparoscopically. The condition should be considered in symptomatic women with previous fibroid surgery.
