摘要: The presence of a soft tissue mass in children is concern to parents and physicians. Fortunately, these masses are rare usually benign or pseudotumoral. When dealing with malignant tumors, therapeutic options long-term survival strongly related the disease stage at time diagnosis. Therefore, when present indeterminate persisting symptoms posttraumatic, metabolic, infectious disorders have been ruled out, one should perform dedicated imaging studies (conventional radiography, computed tomography [CT], both; sonography; magnetic resonance [MR] imaging) exclude possibility nonpalpable characterize present. An overview use different modalities for evaluating tumors pediatric patient presented. Because numerous benign, malignant, pseudotumoral that often encountered children, clinical, histologic, features presented as concise tables.
