The analogies between plantar fibromatosis and Dupuytren's disease (palmar fibromatosis) are well known.

By contrast, such data on plantar fibromatosis are quite scarce. A histochemical, immunohistochemical, and ultrastructur...

A mass excision surrounding the bronchial stump was performed to exclude malignancy in a 42-year-old man who had undergone a right lower lobectomy for lung cancer. The mass was identified as a cicatricial fibroma. Cicatricial fibromatosis, which is desmoid fibromatosis that arises in a surgical scar, is a well-known clinical condition. It consists of histologically benign neoplasms. Their occur...
