We present a case of a 54-year-old female patient. MRI examination showed a mass adjacent to the left scapula and a localized heterogeneous mass in the right subscapular area. Microscopic examination revealed abnormal elastic fibers and globules and mature adipose tissue mixed with collagen bands in all areas of the lesion. Genetic analysis was done and there were no changes in DNA copy number. The lesion was diagnosed as elastofibrolipoma which is a rare tumor. No bilateral elastofibrolipoma has been previously described.

“…Clínicamente se lo considera un tumor benigno poco frecuente de los tejidos blandos, aunque algunos autores sostienen que suele ser subdiagnosticado 1,6 . Brandser y col. describieron una prevalencia del 2% en personas mayores de 60 años, quienes fueron estudiadas mediante tomografía computada, mientras que un estudio basado en necropsias encontró una prevalencia del 24% en mujeres y del 11% en hombres 5 .…”

ResumenEl elastofibroma dorsi es un tumor benigno, cuya localización más frecuente es la pared torácica, a nivel de la región infraescapular. Generalmente afecta a mujeres entre la quinta a séptima década de la vida, siendo el compromiso bilateral muy frecuente. Su presentación clínica es variable desde una lesión asintomática descubierta accidentalmente por estudios de imágenes complementarios (ecografía, tomografía, resonancia) solicitados por otra causa, pasando por síntomas leves, en ocasiones no muy bien definidos, hasta dolor e impotencia funcional. A partir de una viñeta clínica el autor de este artículo repasa las características más destacadas de esta causa poco frecuente de dolor torácico.

“…Go et al in a recent review of the literature identified 330 cases of elastofibroma between 1980 and 2009 [2]. We herein report a case of a symptomatic, unilateral ED in a 65-year-old woman, and we briefly perform a PubMed research adding 161 cases of ED from 2009 up today in the already existing literature [3–26]. …”

Elastofibroma dorsi (ED) is an uncommon, slow-growing, benign, soft tissue tumor of unclear pathogenesis, typically located at the subscapular region of elderly people. It may be unilateral or bilateral. Though many patients are asymptomatic, ED can cause local deformity and symptoms such as periscapular pain or discomfort. Herein we report a case of a 65-year-old woman with painful ED. Clinical features, radiodiagnostic, intraoperative, and pathologic findings, and a brief review of the literature are performed.
