Craniofacial resection of ossifying fibromas and osteomas of the sinuses.

Massive fibro-osseous lesions of the frontal and ethmoidal sinuses are rare. If left untreated, these lesions can produce chronic infection, orbital complications, and/or intracranial events. In the past, resection of these lesions has usually been subtotal and a risk of damage to intracranial structures existed, particularly to the dura, due to poor exposure, and a high recurrence rate was also present. We have treated eight such lesions with a combined craniofacial approach for total resection with resolution of symptoms, without recurrence, and without occurrence of cerebrospinal fluid leak, damage to the orbital contents or intracranial structures, or resultant cosmetic deformity.

A syndrome of digital fibromas, facial pigmentary dysplasia, and metacarpal and metatarsal disorganization.

We report on a girl with fibrous tumors involving hands and feet associated with unusual brachydactyly and facial abnormalities with pigmentary skin lesions. The multiple, infiltrative fibrous tumors clinically resembled recurring digital fibromata (RDF) of infancy, but eosinophilic cytoplasmic inclusion bodies pathognomonic for RDF were not demonstrated in her tumor cells. Skeletal alterations of the hands and feet comprised brachymesophalangy with cone-shaped epiphyses and variable shortening and deformity of the metacarpals and metatarsals. Facial abnormalities included upward slant of palpebral fissures, primary telecanthus with epicanthal folds, and a depressed nasal tip, along with a small fibrous tumor on the left eyelid. The patient also had patchy, brownish discolorations of the face. The clinical, radiological, and histological constellation in the patient may represent a hitherto undescribed hamartomatous syndrome.

Localized fibrous "mesothelioma" of pleura (submesothelial fibroma): a clinicopathologic study of 18 cases.

Eighteen cases of solid fibrous tumors of the visceral pleura are studied. The series includes neoplasms of various sizes removed during the last 17 years at The Mount Sinai Hospital. Most tumors showed consistent gross and light microscopic features, such as encapsulation, preservation of pedicle, origin from visceral pleura, predominance of spindle cells with more or less hyalinized stroma, little or no pleomorphism or mitotic activity and no infiltration of the underlying lung. No sex predominance or relation to environmental pollutants was noted. Peak incidence was in the 6th decade of life. Total excision proved curative in all cases with no recurrences or complications. The cell of origin of this tumor appears to be a noncommitted mesenchymal cell present in the areolar tissue subjacent to the mesothelial lining.
