Popis: Congenital infantile fibrosarcoma is a rare malignant soft tissue tumor, accounting for less than 1%-2% of childhood cancers. Although it can arise from any body part, an abdominal wall origin is exceptionally rare. This case report presents a case of congenital infantile fibrosarcoma originating from the abdominal wall. To the best of our knowledge, this is only the second reported case of abdominal wall congenital infantile fibrosarcoma. Unlike adult fibrosarcoma, infantile fibrosarcoma has a good prognosis with less metastasis. Early diagnosis and management are critical for improving outcomes in such rare cases.
