Plantar fibromatosis is defined as a benign fibrous disorder involving the plantar aponeurosis. Although its incidence is well described on the hands, it is less commonly seen on the feet, and its etiology is unknown. A differential diagnosis for the heel pain along the medial arch could be a benign thickening of the plantar fascia associated with ...

The purpose of this article is to review the pertinent literature and to define the optimal treatment of patients with aggressive fibromatosis. Data indicate the likelihood of local recurrence after surgery is high, particularly if margins are positive.

Juvenile fibromatosis is a benign lesion with locally aggressive characteristics. Wide surgical excision is the treatment of choice. Radiation therapy can be used for inoperable cases or as adjunctive therapy. Steroid therapy has not been used extensively and deserves further evaluation.

Ten patients with aggressive fibromatosis of the extremities were prospectively followed for 2-6 years. Results of treatment methods were compared. Five patients underwent three-dimensional imaging with and without intravenous contrast, and the images were compared with the anatomic extent of the resected lesion. Pathologic specimens and control tissue

This article illustrates the imaging findings that have pathologic correlation and the clinical presentation of mammary fibromatosis.Mammary fibromatosis is a rare, benign, nonmetastasizing stromal tumor. It presents clinically and radiologically as a palpable, spiculated, and locally invasive tumor that is suspicious for malignancy.

Two rare cases of mesenteric fibromatosis are presented. The first patient had a right upper quadrant mass and colicky abdominal pain. The tumor originated from the mesentery of the colon and it infiltrated the gallbladder, cystic duct, and the liver. The second patient had severe hematemesis and melena.

Clinical Genetics, 1981
The cause of fibromatosis is unknown. A literature review provides strong evidence that genetic factors may play an important aetiological role. This report describes a family in which fibromatosis has been present in at least five individuals. It is proposed that this family provides further evidence for a hereditary predisposition to fibromatosis.

International Journal of Colorectal Disease, 2014
Mesenteric fibromatosis is a rare, locally invasive, non-metastasizing type of intra-abdominal fibromatoses with a very high rate of recurrence. Because of rarity, these tumors pose a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. These tumors may remain asymptomatic, but commonly present as a painless mass. There are no clear treatment guidelines.

Aggressive (deep or desmoid-type) fibromatoses are locally infiltrative collagen-forming tumours with potential for recurrence but not metastasis. They exert their clinical effects primarily in relation to location and have variable biological behaviour.

The authors present the case of a 13-year-old boy in whom, after irradiation for Hodgkin's disease and exploratory laparotomy, mesenteric fibromatosis developed. The "tumor" was resected, and 1 year postoperatively the patient is well.
