title: [Pachydermodactyly: report of a case].
abstract: This 20 year old white patient complained of progressive thickening of his fingers over a period of four years. The second, third and fifth fingers of each hand indeed appeared podgy. The soft tissue on each side of the first phalanx was swollen, firm without adherence to the bone. The skin of the interdigital space was hyperpigmented and lichenified. This case illustrates the clinical and histologic features of digital fibromatosis which are discussed.
