Clonal analysis of palmar fibromatosis: a study whether palmar fibromatosis is a real tumor

Table 1 Clinicopathological features and histopathological phases

Case No.	Age(years)	Site	Size(cm)	Stage
1	16	MP of index finger(L)	0.5 × 1.0	P.P. and E.P.
2	34	palmar surface(L)	1.0 × 2.0	P.P.
3	8	palmar surface(L)	1.0 × 1.5	P.P.
4	52	palmar surface(R)	1.5 × 1.5	P.P. and E.P.
5	25	MP of index finger(L)	4.0 × 4.0	P.P.
6	64	palmar surface(R)	0.3 × 0.3	E.P.
7	23	palmar surface(R)	1.0 × 1.5	E.P.
8	52	MP of middle finger(R)	0.3 × 0.5	P.P
9	42	MP of index finger(L)	0.5 × 1.0	P.P. and E.P.
10	71	palmar surface(R)	0.8 × 2.0	R.P.
11	62	palmar surface(R)	0.5 × 2.0	R.P.
12	52	MP of ring finger(R)	1.5 × 2.0	P.P.

MP = metacarpophalangeal joint; R = right hand; L = left hand;
P.P. = proliferative phase; E.P. = evolutional phase; R.P. = residual phase;
P.P. and E.P. = both proliferative phase and evolutional phase can be found in the same sample.
