The cystic fibroma (fibroma cysticum) has central softening or dilated lymphatic vessels. The myxofibroma (fibroma myxomatodes) is produced by liquefaction of the underlying soft tissue. The cemento-ossifying fibroma is hard and fibrous, most frequently seen in the jaw or mouth, sometimes in connection with a fracture or another type of injury.
The ovarian fibroma, also fibroma, is a benign sex cord-stromal tumour. Ovarian fibromas represent 4% of all ovarian neoplasms. [ 1 ] They tend to occur mostly during perimenopause and postmenopause , the median age having been reported to be about 52 years, and they are rare in children . [ 1 ]
Fibrous hamartoma of infancy [7] Fibromatosis colli , also termed sternomastoid tumor of infancy, sternocleidomastoid pseudotumors, and congenital torticollis [ 8 ] Juvenile hyaline fibromatosis , also termed fibromatosis hyalinica multiplex juvenilis and the Murray–Puretic–Drescher syndrome, an autosomal recessive inherited genetic disease .
Cardiac fibroma is commonly treated through surgical excision procedures. The removal of the cardiac tumor requires open heart surgery. During surgery, the tumor and tissues around it is removed to reduce the risk of the tumor returning. [13] Recovery after surgery is between 4–5 days in the hospital and 6 weeks in total.
Collagenous fibroma is characterized histopathologically by long, sweeping fascicles of uniformly spindled cells that range in size from moderately to hypercellular. Long, thick-walled arteries exhibiting perivascular stromal edema are seen. [7] Gardner fibroma, nuchal-type fibroma, and desmoid tumor are examples of differential diagnoses. [8]
A peripheral ossifying fibroma, also known as ossifying fibrous epulis, is “a gingival nodule which is composed of a cellular fibroblastic connective tissue stroma which is associated with the formation of randomly dispersed foci of mineralised products, which consists of bone, cementum-like tissue, or a dystrophic calcification.
Giant-cell fibromas are commonly located on the gingiva.The tongue is the second most common location, followed by the palate or buccal mucosa.Giant-cell fibromas are usually asymptomatic and appear as 0.5-1cm pedunculated or sessile lesions with a pebbly or bosselated surface.
Koenen's tumor (KT), also commonly termed periungual angiofibroma, [1]: 668 is a subtype of the angiofibromas. [3] Angiofibromas are benign papule, nodule, and/or tumor lesions that are separated into various subtypes based primarily on the characteristic locations of their lesions.
