Abstract:
Fibrous hamartoma of infancy (FHI) is a benign, poorly demarcated, unencapsulated hamartoma contiguous with surrounding fat. This case highlights pronounced bony remodeling and muscle atrophy associated with FHI in a 6-week-old girl. Emphasis is placed on pathologic diagnosis and mechanisms, treatment considerations, and the multidisciplinary approach utilized in the management of the disorder.

Globular and Fibrous Proteins
Globular proteins are also known as spheroproteins and typically are approximately round in shape. They contain a mix of amino acid types and contain differing sequences in their primary structures. Globular proteins have many different functions, such as enzymes, cellular messengers, and molecular transporters. These roles often require the proteins to be...
