Abstract:
The role of ultrasound (US) is limited in the pathologic diagnosis of soft tissue tumors. It is possible to predict the pathologic results of some common soft tissue tumors with typical US features. We report the US and pathologic findings of three angiolipomas, one nodular hidradenoma, and one benign myofibroblastic tumor, which are uncommon soft tissue tumors with characteristic US findings.
