A dermatofibroma is associated with the dimple sign; by applying lateral pressure, there is a central depression of the dermatofibroma. Although typical dermatofibromas cause little or no discomfort, itching and tenderness can occur. Dermatofibromas can be found anywhere on the body, but most often they are found on the legs and arms. [5]
They can grow in all organs, arising from mesenchyme tissue. The term " fibroblastic " 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.
It can be combined with liposuction to help tighten and smooth over the new contours after removal of excess fat. Resurfacing can be ablative, which vaporizes tissue and creates wounds, or non-ablative which keeps the skin intact. Laser resurfacing is usually done with a 2940 nm Er:YAG laser or a 10,600 nm CO 2 laser.
The removal can often be done under local anesthetic and takes less than 30 minutes. This cures the great majority of cases, with about 1–2% of lipomas recurring after excision. [ 28 ] Liposuction is another option if the lipoma is soft and has a small connective tissue component.
Oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) is a chronic, complex, premalignant (1% transformation risk) condition of the oral cavity, characterized by juxta-epithelial inflammatory reaction and progressive fibrosis of the submucosal tissues (the lamina propria and deeper connective tissues).

Hereafter, references to FAP will include its GS variant.) Furthermore, some cases of GF tumors, including those which are not associated with FAP, progress to or, after their surgical removal, recur as desmoid tumors (DT). A minority [1] of desmoid tumors, mainly those developing in the abdominal cavity, [3] are also associated with FAP. [3]
Women during pregnancy can also present with an epulis, which will resolve after birth. Fibroepithelial polyps, pedunculated lesions of the palate beneath an upper denture, are associated with this condition. A cobble-stone appearance similar to an epulis fissuratum in a patient without dentures can be diagnostic of Crohn's disease. [8]
