CASE HISTORY
58-year-old male evaluate soft tissue mass.
TECHNICAL FACTORS
Long- and short-axis fat- and water-weighted images were performed. 1.5T High-Field Oval.
KEY IMAGES
This case has no key images.
CASE FINDINGS
- No acute bony macrofracture or contusion. Multiple soft tissue masses scattered in the plantar fat pad of the foot probably represent plantar fibromatosis. They are located subjacent to the 1st metatarsal diaphysis 1st metatarsal head proximal phalanx of the 2nd metatarsal 4th and 5th proximal phalanges and the 5th metatarsal head.
