Eosinophilic Angiocentric Fibrosis

Eosinophilic angiocentric fibrosis is a rare indolent lesion of the head and neck region that has characteristic histologic findings of onionskin fibrosis and prominent eosinophils. Its pathogenesis has been poorly understood and has been most commonly attributed to hypersensitivity or previous trauma. Recently, the lesion has been included in the spectrum of immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)–related disease. However, few of the existing cases of eosinophilic angiocentric fibrosis have been evaluated for IgG4+ and IgG+ plasma cells. Therefore, we provide an update on the clinical and histologic features of eosinophilic angiocentric fibrosis to increase awareness of the entity and encourage its further characterization as an IgG4-related disease.

Introduction: Congenital infantile fibrosarcoma is often misdiagnosed. It may be more common than noted in the literature. We present an unusual case of paediatric head and neck fibrosarcoma. Methods: Restrospective case report and literature review. Results: We report the surgical management of a fibrosarcoma of the tongue in an 8-month-old child where neo-adjuvant chemotherapy was unsuccessful. Conclusion: Surgical resection is the mainstay of treatment, in the head and neck region where critical structures are close to the tumour, complete resection with wide margins can be difficult. The role of chemotherapy is yet to be defined.
