Calcifying aponeurotic fibroma (CAF) is a rare soft tissue tumour which occurs mainly in children and adolescents. It usually involves the distal portion of the extremities, i.e. the hands and feet. A 2-year-old child with a large CAF is presented. The case was unusual in view of its large size (10 x 7 x 5 cm), dense calcification in such a young child, and because it was situated in the substance of gluteus maximus muscle. There has been no recurrence at 3-year follow-up.
