Abstract
- The fibromatoses are a broad group of fibrous proliferations. They have a biologic behavior and histopathologic pattern that is intermediate between those of benign fibrous lesions and fibrosarcoma. Because they are not common diseases, it is important to differentiate the fibromatoses from other similar diseases. In this report, we present a case of fibromatosis, and possible other diseases to be differentiated, with a review of literatures.
