Abstract

Melanotic neuroectodermal tumour of infancy and Aggressive desmoid fibromatosis are histologically benign tumors but with aggressive behavior, it’s occurring during the little infancy and are caracterised by Fast-growing, osteolysis and recurrence. The treatment is essentially surgical. Melanotic neuroectodermal tumour of infancy is a rare tumour which affects young children arising from neural crest with a black coloring. It grows rapidly and first touches the maxilla. We related the case of a three-month age male who presents a tumor in the right maxilla. The case have CT scan and histology feature. Aggressive desmoid fibromatosis is a benign tumor with locally infiltrative behavior and tendency to recur. We report a rare case involving the mandible arch of three years old girl with histopathological, immunohistochemical and imaging features. She underwent a large surgically resection of the arch of the mandible, there has been no recurrence three years after.

    This is an interesting rare case series about pediatric head and neck tumor. It has been considered as a benign neoplasm with high recurrence rate, Immunohistochemistry and further narrates computed tomography contributes to early diagnosis and careful follow-up after the complete surgical excision is required. The narration is well designed.
