What is this condition?

I am writing for an American Hand surgeon, in practice for 30 years. He says that: "The problem I have with this one is that this a diagnosis I have NEVER made. We need to understand if this is another name for something I do treat, if it's rare, etc. What's going on?" Ischyros7 (talk) 03:25, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If one searches PubMed for "fibroma of tendon sheath" one currently finds 98 articles, including recent review articles (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=%22fibroma+of+tendon+sheath%22). So there appears to be a body of experts of medicine in a bubble not overlapping your bubble. Given the considerable literature on the topic, it seems fine to have this article, even though you are not familiar with this condition. Consider adding some of these newer PubMed references (e.g. PMID: 28854920). Jaredroach (talk) 16:49, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
