Multicentric myofibromatosis presenting as a large congenital eyelid myofibroma

Infantile myofibromatosis is a rare mesenchymal neoplasm that commonly involves the head and neck but rarely the eyelid. We report the case of a newborn boy referred for evaluation of a left eyelid lesion that occluded the visual axis. Urgent biopsy was performed to evaluate for malignancy. Histopathologic analysis demonstrated myofibroma. Although these lesions have been reported to regress spontaneously, debulking surgery was performed to prevent sensory or anisometropic amblyopia. Follow-up systemic evaluation revealed numerous subcutaneous and deep soft tissue lesions. There was no visceral involvement.
