Abstract

Elastofibroma is a rare tumor mainly found under the scapula. Based on a recent study of five cases, we would like to stress the importance of making the diagnosis of elastofibroma, as this lesion simply consists of dysplasia of the elastic fibres and is not malignant as could be suggested by clinical examination.
