Fibroma of the tendon sheath (FTS) is a rare benign soft tissue tumor. Its location and clinical findings may be similar to the giant cell tumor of tendon sheath or to infantile digital fibromatosis. Accurate diagnosis of FTS depends on microscopic examination of the excised tumor. The present report deals with two cases.
