Abstract

Scant literature exists on prenatally diagnosed infantile myofibromatosis (IM). We report a case of multicentric IM, which was first recognized as a soft-tissue paraspinal mass on prenatal sonography and subsequently characterized by MRI with pathological confirmation.

Keywords: MRI; infantile myofibromatosis; obstetrics; soft tissue mass; sonography.
