Inflammatory fibroid polyp of the anus in a 12-month-old girl: Case report and review of the literature.
Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health 2022 August
Inflammatory fibroid polyp (IFP) is a rare, usually solitary and intraluminal polypoid benign tumour that can affect any part of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Its aetiology is unknown and clinical presentation depends on the site of involvement. We present the case of a 12-month-old girl with IFP and review all reported cases of IFP in children and adolescents <18 years. A 12-month-old girl presented with rectal bleeding. The patient underwent colonoscopy which revealed an anus polyp. Surgical resection was performed and histopathological examination of the specimen showed features of IFP. A literature review of 20 cases (including ours) between 1966 and January 2022 is also presented. To our knowledge, this is the youngest reported patient with IFP and the first in the anal area.
