title: Low-grade myofibroblastic sarcoma of the palm.
abstract: We report here a case of an unusual spindle cell tumour of the palm with myofibroblastic differentiation, which was surgically excised. Histologically and immunohistochemically, it was a low-grade myofibroblastic sarcoma. After 25 months follow-up the patient is well and free of recurrence.
