We report the unusual association of Progressive Facial Hemiatrophy (Parry-Romberg syndrome) with multiple benign tumors (orbital neurinoma, mandibular odontogenous fibroma) and hamartomas. The neurological clinical features were infantile hemiplegia, mild mental retardation and focal seizures. Brain CT-scan and MRI showed porencephaly and cerebral calcifications ipsilateral to hemifacial atrophy. Immunological investigations proved negative. The etiology of the disease and the bridging of this case to phakomatoses are discussed.

Left ventricular fibroma is a rare benign tumour of the heart. We present the case of a 24-year-old man with left hemiplegia and bilateral popliteal artery occlusion associated with left ventricular mass. The patient underwent successful excision of a pedunculated mass attached to the trabeculae of left ventricular cavity. Histopathologic examination confirmed the presence of fibroma associated with septic thrombus. The association of fibroma and embolization is rare.
