Abstract
Juvenile hyaline fibromatosis is a rare disorder characterized by an extracellular accumulation of hyaline deposit. In the extremities, lesions may remain quiescent or gradually increase in size, eventually resulting in skin ulceration. There is no curative treatment. Surgery may allow some recovery of function, but recurrence is possible. We report a case of juvenile hyaline fibromatosis in both hands of a 25-year-old man who required multiple surgical procedures to address problems with function, pain, and appearance.
