Nodular Fasciitis: Case Report
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 9
Abstract
Nodular fasciitis is a benign proliferative spindle-cell lesion that presents as a rapidly growing mass frequently being mistaken for a sarcoma. We report in this observation a localization of this tumor in the angulomandibular region, which was problematic to us from the clinical and radiological diagnostic aspects. The biopsy or biopsy-excision must allow torespect the neighboring structures (vessels, nerves and muscular compartments). It is a benign lesion, which does not recur and can regress spontaneously.
