'''Fibromas''' (or '''fibroid tumors''' or '''fibroids''') are [[benign]] [[tumor]]s that are composed of fibrous or [[connective tissue]]. They can grow in all organs, arising from [[mesenchyme]] tissue.

The term "[[fibroblast]]ic" or "fibromatous" is used to describe tumors of the [[fibrous connective tissue]]. When the term '''fibroma''' is used without modifier, it is usually considered [[benign]], with the term [[fibrosarcoma]] reserved for [[malignant]] tumors.


The term '''[[fibroid]]''' can also refer to tumors of [[smooth muscle]], as in [[uterine fibroids]].
==Case Studies==
 
:[[Fibroma case study one|Case #1]]
==Hard Fibroma==  
The hard fibroma (fibroma durum) consists of many fibres and few cells, e.g. in skin it is called '''[[dermatofibroma]]''' (fibroma simplex or nodulus cutaneous), might A special form is the [[keloid]], which derives from hyperplastic growth of [[scars]].
 
==Soft Fibroma==
The '''soft fibroma''' (fibroma molle) or fibroma with a shaft (acrochordon, skin tag, fibroma pendulans) consist of many loosely connected cells and less fibroid tissue. It mostly appears at the neck, armpits or groins. The photo shows a soft fibroma of the eyelid.
 
==Other Types of Fibroma==
The fibroma cavernosum or '''angiofibroma''', consists of many often dilated vessels, it is a vasoactive tumor occurring almost exclusively in adolescent males.
 
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]].
 
Other fibromas: '''chondromyxoid fibroma''', '''desmoplasmic fibroma''', '''nonossifying fibroma''', '''ossifying fibroma''', '''perifollicular fibroma''', '''pleomorphic fibroma'''  etc.
 
'''Ovarian Fibroma'''
 
It appears in the [[sex cord-stromal tumour]] group of [[Ovarian cancer|ovarian neoplasm]]s. Ovary fibromas are most frequent during [[middle age]], and rare in children.
Upon gross [[pathology|pathological]] inspection, ovary fibromas are firm and white or tan.
Variants with [[edema]] are especially likely to be associated with [[Meig's syndrome]].
On [[Microscope|microscopic]] examination, there are intersecting bundles of [[spindle cells]] producing [[collagen]].
There may be [[thecoma]]tous areas (fibrothecoma).
 
==Treatment==
Benign fibromas can be removed or left alone. A physician should examine the fibroma and determine whether it may be malignant. If there is any question as to whether it may be cancer-related, it should be removed. This is usually a brief outpatient procedure.
