Abstract
We describe the case of an infant that presented with a supraclavicular nodular fasciitis that recurred after an initial gross total resection. A review of pathology records at the Children's Hospital of Alabama led to the identification of 18 nodular fasciitis cases between 1997 and 2009, all of wh...

We report the case of a pediatric patient with eosinophilic fasciitis, who was successfully treated with early high dose corticosteroids and subsequent use of mycophenolate mofetil. We believe that the early institution of corticosteroids helped to suppress the early inflammatory part of the disease...

Abstract
Mean distal attachments to the medial tibial border were superior to the distal third of the tibia for the muscles of the posterior compartments, suggesting that the role of the soleus, the tibialis posterior, and the flexor digitorum longus in producing pain typically associated with MTSS may be li...

Abstract
Nodular fasciitis is a benign reactive proliferation that is frequently misdiagnosed as a sarcoma. This article describes a case of nodular fasciitis of 6-month duration located in the cheek, which degenerated and spontaneously regressed after biopsy. The nodule was fixed to the zygoma but was free...

We diagnosed cranial fasciitis in six children; in one case, the lesion recurred after 4 years. This lesion and two others showed aberrant, diffuse nuclear reactivity for beta-catenin. One of the lesions with aberrant nuclear beta-catenin occurred in a child with a history of familial adenomatous po...

Soft tissue masses of the facial region have common clinical and radiological features resulting in varied differential diagnosis. Nodular fasciitis is a benign proliferation of fibroblasts and myofibroblasts that may be mistaken for a sarcomatous lesion because of its rapid growth. Buccal space, al...

Abstract
One of the most common and important pitfalls in soft tissue pathology are the so-called pseudosarcomas. These lesions are nonneoplastic; however, their rapid growth, hypercellularity, cytologic atypia, and mitotic activity makes them prone to be misinterpreted as sarcoma. The most common of these l...

Abstract
Fasciitis panniculitis syndrome (FPS) has been proposed as a new category of 'fasciitis' and includes the well-established eosinophilic fasciitis (EF). Unlike EF, FPS exhibits inconsistent eosinophilia and/or eosinophilic infiltration of the lesions. Principal histological FPS findings include derma...

Abstract
Eosinophilic fasciitis is a rare disease classified by some authors to scleroderma like syndromes. It occurs the most frequently between the second and the sixth decade of life, mainly in Caucasians. It usually appears in young males and exceptionally in children. It has an abrupt onset. The etiolog...
