Rare Case of Infraorbital Desmoplastic Fibroma in a 10-Year-Old: Challenging Diagnosis, Unusual Location and Multidisciplinary Management: A Case Report

Abstract

Desmoplastic fibroma is a rare benign bone tumor primarily seen in long bones and mandible. Our case was of a 10-year-old with painless infra orbital swelling for which she underwent excision under general anesthesia and reconstruction with orbital plating and iliac crest bone grafting. By its unique clinical presentation and diagnostic challenges encountered in managing this condition, this case report expands our understanding of the disease’s presentation and management, it guides future therapeutic decision-making in similar pediatric cases.
