A Fibroma of Tendon Sheath Causing Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: A Case Report of an Atypical Clinical Presentation

Fibroma of the tendon sheath is a benign slow-growing fibrous tumor. Although rare, cases occurring in the upper extremities usually involve the fingers. It appears as a well-defined, roundor oval-shaped mass originating from the flexor tendon. Abundant fibrous stroma makes fibromas appear as a l...
