Proliferative fasciitis (PF) is a benign fibroblastic reaction with histological and clinical characteristics that overlap with those of malignant soft tissue tumors; thus, it is referred to as a pseudosarcomatous reaction. It continues to be an important cause of diagnostic error and overtreatment. The childhood PF subtype has some distinct histological and immunohistochemical characteristics that make differential diagnosis with malignant tumors even harder, especially with sarcoma. These proliferations generally occur in the lower limbs, and the periorbital region is a rare location of appearance. Here, we describe a case of childhood subtype PF in a 16-year-old girl located in the periorbital area. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of childhood subtype PF in the periorbital area, and the third case if PF subtypes are not taken into account.
