The initial presentation and natural history of FCTN fit better with a neoplasm than with a hamartoma. Thus, we suggest replacing the term "nevus" with tumor and considering fibroblastic connective tissue tumor (FCTT) as the right denomination of this clinico-pathological entity. FCTTs are difficult to diagnose due to their clinical heterogeneity. Clinical and histological malignant and benign differential diagnoses are discussed.

“…16,18,19 On US, the appearances may suggest a vascular lesion where it can be seen as a heterogeneous mass with hypervascularity and cystic changes. 14,20 MRI appearances are again nonspecific. The lesion may be well defined or infiltrative, isointense to muscle on T1, and high on T2.…”

Lumps and bumps are frequently seen in children, and the vast majority are a result of trauma, infection, or inflammation. True soft tissue neoplastic lesions are rare; however, their wide and complex classifications make these lesions challenging to manage. Imaging features are usually nonspecific, and a reasonable list of differential diagnoses can be generated following consideration of the clinical presentation, age, and anatomical location of the lesion. In this article, we offer a practical approach to diagnosing such lesions by discussing the most common three benign and malignant lesions in different anatomical regions stratified by age with emphasis on certain features that might aid in the diagnosis such as depth, multiplicity, calcification, or other specific imaging feature.
