Abstract
AUGELLO DIAZ, Salvatore L.; ROSALES GARCES, Magnolis; GONCE CUTIE, Wilhen and GONZALEZ GONZALEZ, Alberto. Presentation of a Patient with Pseudosarcomatous Nodular Fasciitis of the Scalp. CCM [online]. 2014, vol.18, n.3, pp. 551-556. ISSN 1560-4381.
The nodular fasciitis is an uncommon fast growth disease, benign and pseudosarcomatous, described by Konwaler as subcutaneous pseudosarcomatous fibromatosis, frequent in the upper extremities and the trunk, and rare in the scalp. The outcome is good if the resection is completely performed, and the cure is total. A 35- year- old patient with multinodular lesions six years ago of progress in the time was presented, which was in the frontal and parietal zone of the skull. The CT scan showed a little erosion of the bone. A total resection of the lesion was done. The biopsy showed pseudosarcomatous nodular fasciitis totally. No relapse in two years
Keywords : nodular fasciitis; scalp; total resection.
