Osseous metaplasia in plantar fibromatosis: a case report.
A case report about extensive osseous metaplasia of a plantar fibromatosis is presented. The authors are unaware of previous reports in the literature describing osseous metaplasia within plantar fibromatosis in this manner. This case shows that plantar fibromatosis may undergo osseous metaplasia in a fashion similar to fibromatous lesions elsewhere.
