This report details a rare case of a presacral benign mesenchymoma in a 4-year-old girl. The tumor, initially unrecognized, showed local infiltration but no malignancy, with no recurrence after 3 months.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric oncology
  • Surgical pathology

Background:

  • Benign mesenchymomas are rare pediatric tumors.
  • Pelvic occurrences in children are exceptionally uncommon.

Observation:

  • A 4-year-old female presented with a presacral mass.
  • The tumor's benign nature and mesenchymoma origin were not identified pre- or intraoperatively.
  • Pericapsular infiltration was noted, but no malignant features were present.

Findings:

  • The patient showed no clinical evidence of recurrence at 3-month follow-up.
  • Literature review confirms the rarity of benign mesenchymoma in childhood, particularly in the pelvic region.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the diagnostic challenges of rare pediatric pelvic tumors.

  • Further research into the behavior and management of pediatric benign mesenchymomas is warranted.
