Myxoinflammatory Fibroblastic Sarcoma of Eyeball in an Infant: A Rare Presentation

Myxoinflammatory fibroblastic sarcoma (MIFS) is a rare soft tissue neoplasm most commonly occurring in the distal extremities of adult patients. It is a low-grade neoplasm with high rate of local recurrence but low rate of metastasis. We describe a case of MIFS of eyeball in an infant. An enucleation surgery was performed, and on the basis of histopathological and immunohistochemical evaluation, a diagnosis of MIFS was rendered. Till date more than 400 cases of MIFS have been reported with only a single case report of MIFS in an adult in iris. To the best of our knowledge, ours is the first case of MIFS in the eye in a child. Considering its rarity in children and especially in an infant (this seems to be the youngest patient in the literature), close follow-up is essential as the biology of these lesions cannot be predicted.
