BACKGROUND: The imaging manifestations of oral and maxillofacial myofibroma/myofibromatosis can vary among patients. Although many clinical cases have been reported, a consensus on the clinicopathological features of and treatment principles for this disease is lacking. PURPOSE: This study aimed to summarize the clinicopathological features of solitary myofibroma of the oral and maxillofacial regions in pediatric patients. METHODS: The clinical data, histological features, and immunohistochemical characteristics of ten pediatric patients who underwent surgical removal and subsequent pathological diagnosis of myofibroma were collected and retrospectively and cross-sectionally analyzed. RESULTS: Seven patients were male, and 3 were female, with ages ranging from 3 months to 6 years (mean: 2.6 years). The patients presented with solitary lesions involving the mandibular gingiva and adjacent mandible (4 patients), mandible (2 patients), oral floor and submandibular area and adjacent mandible (1 patient), gingiva (1 patient), maxilla (1 patient), and oropharynx (1 patient). Light microscopy revealed spindle-shaped tumor cells organized in bundles or vortex patterns, forming a hemangiopericytoma-like perivascular pattern, whereas immunohistochemical staining revealed diffuse smooth muscle actin (SMA) positivity. All patients underwent surgical resection, and none experienced recurrence over the 12- to 82-month follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: Solitary myofibroma in the oral and maxillofacial regions is predominantly observed in infants and young children, with a higher incidence among males. The prognosis is favorable following localized lesion resection or curettage of jawbone lesions. Accurate recognition of the clinical, radiological, and pathological features of the disease will reduce the misdiagnosis rate.
