  • Title: Fibroma of tendon sheath.
    Author: Sarma DP, Townsend GH, Rodriguez FH.
    Journal: J Foot Surg; 1987; 26(5):422-4. PubMed ID: 3680870.
    Abstract:
    Fibroma of the tendon sheath is a distinct clinicopathologic entity rarely occurring on the foot. It is a benign tumor derived from the fibroblast that clinically appears as a slow-growing painless mass. Complete surgical excision is curative. Recurrence occurs in 24% of the cases, usually due to inadequate excision. This report describes a 36-year-old man with such a tumor of the foot.
