A rare tumour in a rare location: desmoplastic fibroma in a toe.

We report a case of desmoplastic fibroma occurring in the 2nd toe. This lesion most frequently occurs in the long bones or the mandible. This is only the second reported case of desmoplastic fibroma in a toe in the English language. The importance and process of establishing a differential diagnosis in such lesions is highlighted. The similarity between the clinical and histological findings of this tumour and other tumours, both benign and malignant, makes familiarity with the character of desmoplastic fibroma essential for proper treatment.
