Plantar fibromatosis is a benign but infiltrative neoplasm, presenting as a slow-growing nodular thickening most often within the central band of the plantar aponeurosis. In this case report, we presented a 43-year-old male patient who had a tender nodule in the sole of the right foot for two years. On magnetic resonance images, the location and signal intensity characteristics of the lesion were suggestive of plantar fibromatosis, which was histologically confirmed following an incisional biopsy. Magnetic resonance imaging is a noninvasive method for confirmation of the clinical diagnosis of plantar fibromatosis and also has an important role in planning surgical treatment by delineating the extent of the lesion.
足底纤维瘤病是一种良性但具有浸润性的肿瘤，通常表现为生长缓慢的结节状增厚，最常见于足底腱膜的中央束。在本病例报告中，我们介绍了一名43岁男性患者，其右脚足底出现压痛性结节已有两年。在磁共振图像上，病变的位置和信号强度特征提示为足底纤维瘤病，经切开活检后组织学确诊。磁共振成像是非侵入性的方法，可用于确诊足底纤维瘤病的临床诊断，并且在通过描绘病变范围来规划手术治疗方面也具有重要作用。
