Overview
Physical Examination
Oral Fibroma
HEENT
- Oral fibroma appears as a sessile, dome-shaped mass with a smooth surface.
- The size of the lesion may range from 1-2 centimeters in diameter.
- Oral fibroma is usually pale pink in color. Occasionally, the lesion may appear reddish.
- If traumatized, ulceration on the surface may be noted.
- Oral fibroma is firm upon palpation and exhibits a well-defined periphery and usually non tender on palpation.
Chondromyxoid Fibroma
Extremities
The proximal tibia metaphysis is the most common location, followed by the distal femoral metaphysis.[1]
- Patients may have localized tenderness or swelling over a lesion
- A pathologic fracture may be present
Non-ossifying Fibroma
Extremities
- Large non-ossifying fibromas may cause localized tenderness or swelling over a lesion and/or pathologic fracture in the long bones.[2]
Desmoplastic Fibroma
Extremities
- Tenderness over the affected area
- Palpable mass may be present[3]
