    Author: Sevilla JJ, Ares-Rodriguez O, Seijas R, Pérez-Domínguez M.
    Journal: Acta Orthop Belg; 2009 Feb; 75(1):141-4. PubMed ID: 19358415.
    Abstract:
    Nodular fasciitis is a benign fibroblastic tumour that does not commonly occur in the hand and generally does not exceed 5 cm in size. Given the characteristics of this entity, it demands a differential diagnosis with malignant tumours and infectious processes. We present an unusual case of nodular fasciitis in the palm of the hand, producing a lesion larger than any similar lesion reported previously in this location.
