This article describes a tendon sheath fibroma that developed in the thigh of a 70-year-old man, the only known tendon sheath fibroma to form in this location. Similar to tendon sheath fibromas that develop elsewhere, our patient\u2019s lesion presented as a painless, slow-growing soft tissue nodule. Physical examination revealed a firm, nontender mass with no other associated signs or symptoms. Although the imaging appearance of tendon sheath fibromas varies, our patient\u2019s lesion appeared dark on T1- and bright on T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging. It was well marginated and enhanced with contrast.<\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>Histologically, tendon sheath fibromas are composed of dense fibrocollagenous stromas with scattered spindle-shaped fibroblasts and narrow slit-like vascular spaces. Most tendon sheath fibromas can be successfully removed by marginal excision, although 24% of lesions recur. No lesions have metastasized. Our patient\u2019s tendon sheath fibroma was removed by marginal excision, and the patient remained disease free 35 months postoperatively. Despite its rarity, tendon sheath fibroma should be included in the differential diagnosis of a thigh mass on physical examination or imaging, especially if it is painless, nontender, benign appearing, and present in men.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3928\/01477447-20120327-34","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,4,11]],"date-time":"2012-04-11T18:56:39Z","timestamp":1334170599000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Tendon Sheath Fibroma in the Thigh"],"prefix":"10.3928","volume":"35","author":[{"given":"Vincent M.","family":"Moretti","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Adedayo O.","family":"Ashana","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Michael","family":"de la Cruz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Richard D.","family":"Lackman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"2308","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_1_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/1097-0142(197911)44:5<1945::AID-CNCR2820440558>3.0.CO;2-T"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_3_2","volume-title":"Tumors of Bone","author":"Geschickter CF","year":"1949","unstructured":"Geschickter CF, Copeland MM.
