A Nigerian boy presented to the paediatric surgical unit of this institution with what appeared to be a malignant congenital mesenchymal neoplasm of the right axilla. The mass was lipofibromatous and invaded local structures. Excision was complete. The specimen weighted 4 kg. Histological features were those of a lipoblastoma. Following excision, he had a neurological deficit involving the 4th and 5th cervical neural segments which persisted till he was lost to follow-up 2 years later.
Surgical treatment of hyperhidrosis axillaris is described using a housed razor blade to remove subcutaneous sweat glands.
