A Case of Nodular Fasciitis / 대한피부과학회지

ABSTRACT

Nodular fasciitis is an uncommon nonneoplastic swelling consisting of reactive fibroblastic proliferation occurring in the subcutaneous tissue of the extremities. It is characterized by benign clinical course and aggressive histologic features mimicking soft tissue sarcoma, Herein we report a 33-year-old man with a solitary, tender, 1.2 X 1.5cm sized hard nodule on the right forearm which clinically and histologically shows a typical nodular fasciitis.
