OBJECTIVE A 65-year-old man presented with a nine-month history of swelling in the midline of the forehead. After surgical intervention, this lesion was found to be a tumefactive fibroinflammatory lesion of the frontal sinus. This case report and review aims to report this new location for tumefactive fibroinflammatory lesion, and to discuss whether, in retrospect, there would have been alterna...

INTRODUCTION Tumefactive fibroinflammatory lesion is an idiopathic fibrosclerosing disorder occurring in the head and neck region. It is one of a broad spectrum of entities named inflammatory pseudotumors and, as the name suggests, it mimics a lot of diseases such as malignancies or infections. Combined with its rarity, tumefactive fibroinflammatory lesion can be a tremendous diagnostic challen...

tumefactive fibroinflammatory lesions (tfls) are rare idiopathic benign fibrosclerosing lesions that clinically simulate a malignancy. tfls are seen more frequently in males between 10 and 74 years of age. the usual site of involvement is the head and neck region, but rarely the extremities may be involved. coexisting fibrosclerotic processes have been reported including retroperitoneal fibrosi...

SUMMARY Tumefactive fibroinflammatory lesions of the head and neck are rare. CNS involvement has not been reported. We present a histologically proven case of a tumefactive fibroinflammatory lesion that originated in the left side of the neck and progressed over 2 years to involve the meninges, the cavernous sinuses, the right temporal lobe, and the right orbit. The lesion caused destruction of...

ABSTRACT Tumefactive fibroinflammatory lesions are rare idiopathic benign fibrosclerosant that clinically and radiologically simulate malignancy. These have a high recurrence rate, so patients should be monitored for the long term. We present case of 87 years old patient who came to emergency room with 1-month history an expansive maxilary lesion. A biopsy was performed result tumefactive
