Fibroma of tendon sheath is a benign tumor that presents as a small subcutaneous nodule that slowly increases in size. The tumors often have a multinodular growth pattern with individual nodules being composed of bland slender spindle-shaped cells (myofibroblasts) in a dense fibrous matrix.” A common microscopic finding is the presence of elongated slit-like blood vessels. The lesions nearly always arise in the distal portions of the extremities.
