Abstract

Tumefactive fibroinflammatory lesion is an idiopathic fibrosclerosing disorder occurring in the head and neck region. It is one of a broad spectrum of entities named inflammatory pseudotumors and, as the name suggests, it mimics a lot of diseases such as malignancies or infections. Combined with its rarity, tumefactive fibroinflammatory lesion can be a tremendous diagnostic challenge. This case report describes a case of tumefactive fibroinflammatory lesion, which was initially thought to be peri-orbital and mandibular osteomyelitis caused by Aspergillus. A lengthy work up ensued and was required to reach the final diagnosis.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 05 December 2013.
All research outputs
#17,703,558
of 22,731,677 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Medical Case Reports
#1,901
of 3,894 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#151,361
of 212,302 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Medical Case Reports
#15
of 23 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,731,677 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,894 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.9. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 212,302 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 25th percentile – i.e., 25% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 23 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 34th percentile – i.e., 34% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
