Özet
Fibromatosis is a benign, locally proliferative disorder of fibroblast. Palmar fibromatosis (Dupuytren disease) is the most common type of the superficial fibromatosis however plantar fibromatosis, or Ledderhose disease is rare. Coexisting conditions include knuckle pads, Peyronie disease, diabetes mellitus, alcoholism, liver disease and epilepsy.
