| Abstract | Nodular fasciitis occurs primarily in the soft tissue structures of the upper extremities and, more rarely, in the lower extremities. This mass, although benign, can mimic certain sarcomas and is therefore important to differentiate from more serious conditions. We report a case of nodular fasciitis of the foot in a healthy 47-year-old male who presented with increasing pain and swelling in his right third digit of 3 months duration. Initial radiographs revealed an irregular contour to the proximal phalanx with increased soft tissue density. Magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography scans were obtained that revealed a soft tissue mass with bone erosion and fracture. Histologic analysis from a specimen obtained after excision of the lesion confirmed the diagnosis of hyalinizing nodular fasciitis. Nodular fasciitis in the foot can appear malignant from the clinical and histopathologic findings but can be differentiated. A quick and accurate diagnosis of this benign process can prevent a treatment program unnecessarily dangerous to the patient. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
