Abstract:
Nodular pseudosarcomatous fasciitis is characterized as rapidly growing benign tumor with microscopically resembling sarcoma in the upper extremities, especially forearms. Most lesions are located in the subcutaneous tissue, although these may also be found intramuscularly, with the involvement of the adjacent fascia or periosteum and dermis.
