A 57-year-old man presents with bothersome nodules on the plantar surface of his bilateral feet. You diagnose him with plantar fibromatosis and initiate conservative treatment with activity modification, orthotics, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications. He experiences minimal symptomatic relief and asks for the option that is supported by the highest-grade clinical evidence of efficacy. Which statement correctly characterizes that evidence?
