What is the cause of fibroids

Fibroids are often found under the skin, grow slowly, are generally small, have clear edges, and smooth surfaces. They are benign tumors. If mixed with other components, they become fibromyomas, fibroadenomas, fibrolipomas, etc. Fibroids, especially hard fibroids in the abdominal wall muscles, can become malignant. So, what is the cause of fibroids?

Fibromatosis is a tumor of fibrous tissue rich in collagen that originates from muscles, aponeurosis, and fascia. The pathological formation is benign or low-grade malignant. A small number of recurrent cases may show morphological changes of fibroma fibrosarcoma. Fibroma is a disease of hyperkeratosis of the epidermis and hyperplasia of dermal connective tissue, also known as skin tag, which is common in middle-aged or elderly people, especially in postmenopausal women. It is usually distributed in two types: filamentous and single pocket-shaped. The former mainly occurs on the side of the neck, and the latter can occur on the face, chest, back, armpits, and groin. Fibroma skin lesions are soft neoplasms ranging from needle tips to mung beans in size, soft, protruding from the skin surface, slender and pedunculated, inelastic, and skin or brown in color.

Fibromatosis is a fibrous tissue tumor rich in collagen that originates from muscle, aponeurosis, and fascia. The pathological formation is benign or low-grade malignant. However, the tumor has no capsule, grows in an invasive manner, and has obvious malignant biological behavior, that is, stubborn and repeated recurrence, but rarely metastasizes to distant sites. The recurrence rate is 50%. The recurrence time is mostly 1 month to 1 year after surgery, and can even reach more than 10 years, so this type of tumor is also called invasive fibromatosis. Multiple recurrences can cause the lesions to involve a wider range of areas, and uncontrollable growth can occur, invading important organs and endangering life. Microscopically, the tumor contains rich collagen fibers, the lesions have no capsule, and there is no boundary with the surrounding tissues. Sometimes the surrounding tissues are included in the lesions. Nuclear division is rare, and capillaries and fat cells are rare. A few recurrent cases may show morphological changes of fibroma fibrosarcoma.

Warm reminder: Fibromas are not uncommon in life, and they are mostly concentrated in young and middle-aged people. If you suffer from this disease, you must actively seek treatment. The earlier the treatment, the greater the chance of recovery. Therefore, everyone must pay attention to daily physical symptoms, so as to prevent them from happening. For your health, please go to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible.
