Congenital fibrosarcoma (CFS) is a rare tumor most often affecting extremities of babies. Considering age, surgery of primary is preferred . Nevertheless amputation rate remains high. Preoperative chemotherapy (CT) role must be emphasised . We present 3 cases receiving preoperative CT.
Patients and methods in 1985 , we treated a 3 months old girl for CFS of the thigh. To avoid amputation, preoperative CT (3 Ifosfamide- Vincristine- Actinomycine D) was performed leading to complete radiological and histological response. She benefited of conservative surgery She is in first complete remission 23 years later .
In September 1999, a 3 ½ y old boy with recurrent l buttock CFS operated elsewhere twice ( 6 months old , 2 years old) , received preoperative chemotherapy with good clinical and radiological response. “En-bloc†extra tumoral resection was performed. Histology showed viable tumoral cells . We completed treatment by chemotherapy. In 01/ 2003 bilateral pulmonary metastases occurred leading to surgery and chemotherapy. In 09/ 2003 a new local recurrence appeared treated by surgery and post-operative chemotherapy. From this time, he received Alpha interferon. He is in complete remission for 6 years.
In 12/ 2005, a 14 y old girl, with local recurrence of CFS, treated elsewhere at the age of 5 months by partial surgery and chemotherapy ( remained in remission for 13 years)was admitted . Since this time, she recurred locally despite resections and multiple lines of chemotherapy, but without metastasising. She was amputated in 2008.
Conclusion : preoperative chemotherapy is feasible despite low age of the patients, can allow conservative surgery and avoid late metastases.
