MULTIPLE FIBROMATOSIS IN THE LOWER LIMB-A RARE CASE STUDY

Fibromatosis is a disorder characterised by a spectrum of biological behaviour from relative indolence to aggressive local infiltration. Though local recurrences are common with fibromatosis, very few cases of synchronous lesions were ever reported . Here we present a case of bicentric fibromatosis in a 34 year old otherwise healthy male in the left lower thigh and upper leg encasing the neurovascular bundles mimicking a neural origin tumour. The lesions were dissected out without sacrificing any neurovascular structures and without any postoperative neurovascular deficit, though pre-operative imaging revealed a complete encasement of the popliteal and posteriortibial vessels by the upper and lower masses respectively.
