Ledderhose disease

Discussion:

Ledderhose disease (or plantar fibromatosis) is a benign disorder due to a fibrous proliferation arising within the plantar aponeurosis.

Patients present with one or more, soft - tissue subcutaneous mass on the medial aspect of the sole of the foot, painful or not.

At ultrasound the lesion is hypoechoic or mixed echogenic, with or without flows inside on Color and Power Doppler; on MR imaging the nodule has low signal intensity on T1w sequences and low - intermediate signal intensity on T2 sequences.
