  • Title: Nodular fasciitis of the breast: a case report.
    Author: Tulbah A, Baslaim M, Sorbris R, Al-Malik O, Al-Dayel F.
    Journal: Breast J; 2003; 9(3):223-5. PubMed ID: 12752631.
    Abstract:
    Nodular fasciitis is a soft tissue lesion that in rare instances occurs in the breast. It can clinically and radiologically mimic malignant tumor. We describe a case of nodular fasciitis of the breast in a young woman that was misdiagnosed as phyllodes tumor. The histologic features and a review of the literature are presented. Awareness of such an entity in the breast obviates the need for unnecessary surgical intervention.
