Résumé
Infantile fibrosarcoma is an uncommon soft tissue tumour in infants and children mostly located in the extremities. Its occurrence in the head and neck, particularly in the oral cavity is extremely rare. Here, we report a case of infantile fibrosarcoma of the tongue base in a 9-year-old boy and discuss the complexities in arriving at diagnosis and its management. The patient underwent wide local excision of the tumour. Histopathology was essential in confirming the diagnosis. As per search in English literature, this is the first case of infantile fibrosarcoma of the tongue base to be reported till date. Treatment of choice is wide local excision with or without chemotherapy.
