Abstract.

We report a case of elastofibroma that occurred in both thighs and subscapular regions. The MR signal intensity of the lesions was typical for elastofibroma. Although bilateral involvement of the thighs is exceptional, the presence of concomitant characteristic bilateral subscapular lesions was helpful in making the diagnosis of elastofibroma.
