Abstract:
An extensive tumour in a 7-year-old girl, leading to severe disfigurement, proved to be an aggressive fibromatosis on histological examination. Eighteen months after surgery there was no evidence of recurrent disease. This suggests that tumour resection and reconstruction of the mandible had been successful. Contrary to some reports, tumour resection led to curative therapy whereas radiotherapy failed.
