Abstract
Plantar fibromas are a disease entity that are encountered by all foot surgeons. When a tentative diagnosis is made, aggressive surgical resection of the mass and the plantar fascia is necessary to prevent recurrence. Presented in this paper is a review of the literature and clinical illustrations of recurrent plantar fibromatosis with long-term follow-up.
