A 14-month-old boy presented with a slow-growing, asymptomatic back plaque, which was biopsied and found to have S100 positivity, sparse CD34 staining, and no significant mitotic activity, nuclear pleomorphism, or necrosis; genetic workup found LMNA-NTRK1 gene fusion, overall consistent with lipofibromatosis-like neural tumor (LPF-NT). LPF-NT is rare, with 14 cases previously reported, and our patient is the first report of this diagnosis in infancy. This case report and literature review includes comparison of similar diagnoses including lipofibromatosis, low-grade malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor, infantile fibrosarcoma, and dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans and serves to aid detection of LPF-NT presenting in pediatric patients by highlighting similarities and differences that should prompt consideration.
