“…7 According to the literature, the most common differential diagnoses of NF in the knee joint have been TGCT and synovial chondromatosis. 4,[8][9][10][11][12][13][14] In the case presented, the patient was thought to have TGCT based on the initial pathology. A repeat biopsy and final pathology after surgical resection confirmed the diagnosis of NF.…”

Introduction Nodular fasciitis is a rare, benign soft tissue lesion that can prove to be difficult to diagnose, especially when intra-articular. Case presentation A 17-year-old female softball player presents with several year history of right knee pain and swelling initially attributed to patellar maltracking refractory to non-operative and operative management. Management and Outcomes Initial pathology suggested tenosynovial giant cell tumor; however, further tissue diagnosis revealed nodular fasciitis, which was eventually resected. Conclusion Intra-articular nodular fasciitis of the knee is rare and may easily be misdiagnosed due to its nonspecific clinical presentation. Careful histological examination can aid in diagnosis. Nodular fasciitis should be considered in the differential diagnoses for intra-articular lesions of the knee joint.

“…Nodular fasciitis is positive for a-smooth muscle actin and negative for many other markers (b-catenin, S100, CD34, High-Mobility Group AT-Hook 2, cytokeratin, epithelial membrane antigen, caldesmon, and desmin). 22 Finally, an intramuscular myxoma should be considered in a differential diagnosis. It is more common in women around age 50 and often affects large muscles in the thigh or shoulder.…”

Benign hand tumors Myxoma Juxta-articular myxoma Soft tissue tumors Juxta-articular myxomata are benign tumors that are mostly encountered in the vicinity of larger joints. Few cases in the hand have been reported. We present a case of a juxta-articular myxoma at the metacarpophalangeal joint of the thumb in a 40-year-old man. The preoperative diagnostic work-up included 4-dimensional magnetic resonance angiography and ultrasound. The histochemical examination of the resected tumor established the diagnosis definitively. Follow-up magnetic resonance imaging scheduled with no clinical suspicion of tumor recurrence 9 months after surgery revealed no obvious recurrence. At 14 months, the patient had full motion without pain and declined further imaging.

“…The clinical findings (site, follow up, and recurrence) of intra-articular fasciitis are summarized in Table 1 from 17 case reports [1,2,4,6,7,[10], [11], [12], [13], [14], [15], [16], [17], [18], [19]]. The prognosis of the condition is excellent and local recurrence of the lesion was not observed among the previously reported cases.…”

Highlights Intra-nodular fasciitis is very rare and there are only two reported cases of intra-articular nodular fasciitis in the elbow joint. It is difficult to diagnose preoperatively, so a clear diagnosis can be obtained only after excisional biopsy. As local recurrence has not occurred in previously reported cases, we think that arthroscopic resection is suitable for treatment of this disease.
