Abstract:
A 2-month-old Korean boy presented with a solitary papule on the cheek which was noted at birth. Histopathologic findings were consistent with angiofibroma of fibrous papule of the face (FPF). FPF is known to affect adults, and congenital occurrence has not been reported to the best of our knowledge. We report a case of congenital FPF which showed a facial papule clinically and an angiofibroma histologically.
