Synonyms
- Palmar fibromatosis: Dupuytren disease/contracture
- Plantar fibromatosis: Ledderhose disease
- Penile fibromatosis: Peyronie disease
Definitions
- Benign, nodular fibroblastic/myofibroblastic proliferations typically arising in volar aspect of hands and fingers or plantar aponeurosis
- Involvement of aponeurosis and variably subcutis and dermis
- Solitary nodules are still called "fibromatosis"; histologically different entity than fibroma
