Elasto fibroma Dorsi: a case report of bilateral tumours and excision of the symptomatic lesion in a male patient

Abstract
Elasto fibroma dorsi is a rare tumour of the shoulder girdle that usually arises at the infra scapular area. We present a 57-year-old male with a soft tissue swelling on his right infra scapular area of 6 months duration. It was a painless lesion which caused him discomfort while sleeping. Preoperative imaging revealed bilateral tumours but the left tumour was impalpable. The surgery itself was uneventful but post-operatively he developed a haematoma which was managed conservatively Elasto fibroma is a benign pseudo tumour of the shoulder girdle. It's aetiology is tied in to repetitive trauma of the shoulder girdle resulting in a pseudo tumour at the infra scapular area. Magnetic resonance imaging is the diagnostic modality of choice and is pathognomic in the presence of bilateral infra scapular tumours. Treatment is usually conservative and tissue diagnosis is essential as it can mimic a soft tissue sarcoma radiologically.
