Abstract
Infantile fibrosarcoma, extremely rare disease of childhood, generally occurs in an extremity and is usually curable with wide surgical excision alone, despite of high local recurrence rates.
We report a case of infantile fibrosarcoma in nasal cavity and nasopharynx, that was managed by resection via intranasal and transpalatal approach. We think this is the first report of infantile fibrosarcoma of the head and neck in Korea.
Keywords: Infantile fibrosarcoma; Surgical excision
