Precalcaneal congenital fibrolipomatous hamartoma.
Precalcaneal congenital fibrolipomatous hamartoma (PCFH) is a condition that is seldom reported in the paediatric literature and rarely in the dermatological literature. It has other disparate and confusing names and as histology is rarely obtained, the condition may be under-reported. We describe this disorder in the male twin of a pair of nonidentical twins.
