  • Title: Nodular fasciitis of the cheek.
    Author: Kamiya H, Araki M, Kitajima Y.
    Journal: Eur J Dermatol; 2003; 13(2):189-91. PubMed ID: 12695137.
    Abstract:
    Nodular fasciitis is a benign, fibrohistiocytic tumor most commonly arising on the trunk. Histopathologically it can be misdiagnosed as fibrosarcoma. We present a case report and review of the literature. Local excision to completely remove the tumor proved curative at 1 year of follow-up. We concluded that nodular fasciitis can be encountered on the cheek and should be regarded as a benign tumor.
