Issue Date: | 2022 | Source: | , 2022 | Journal: | Orbit (London) | Abstract: | We present the long-term follow-up of a case of periorbital congenital infantile fibrosarcoma (CIFS) treated with chemotherapy and surgery. The tumor was detected on a routine prenatal ultrasound at 30 weeks of gestation and diagnosed via an orbital biopsy day 9 postnatal age. The patient underwent chemotherapy and surgical debulking within the first 3 months of life and has maintained complete tumor remission for 7 years. The case highlights that early recognition and prompt treatment of periorbital CIFS can lead to complete long-term remission of this uncommon malignancy.L20160817792022-05-19 | DOI: | 10.1080/01676830.2022.2067566 | Resources: | https://www.embase.com/search/results?subaction=viewrecord&id=L2016081779&from=exporthttp://dx.doi.org/10.1080/01676830.2022.2067566 | | Keywords: | congenital infantile fibrosarcoma;female;fetus echography;follow up;human;male;cancer chemotherapy;pregnancy;tumor regression;adultarticle;orbit disease;cancer surgery;case report;clinical article | Type: | Article |
