COVID-19 and cosmetic skin-fillers are two prevalent topics of today’s medicine, yet their interaction is not sufficiently studied. This article based on a clinico-morphological case where the patient, 37-year-old female, visited clinic with complaints painless palpable subcutaneous pathologic nodular lesions at site collagen filler injection after severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus ...

INTRODUCTION Melanoma is responsible for 1% to 2% of all cancer deaths around the world. Nodular melanoma often carries a poor prognosis because of no prodromal radial growth phase, early distant metastasis and significant tumor volume. CASE PRESENTATION We present a case of progressive melanoma. A 51-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with dyspnea and skin lesions. These were multiple...

Nodular fasciitis is a rare benign lesion. Here we report a case of post-auricular nodular fasciitis, which was misdiagnosed by fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) as pleomorphic adenoma. An 18-year-old male presented at Al-Nahdha Hospital, physical examination revealed a right post aural firm immobile mass. Radiology suggested the presence of a hypo-dense to iso-dense subcutaneous mass. The...

Nodular fasciitis is a benign reactive proliferation that usually involves the deep fascia. Although it is relatively common in the adult population, it is often misdiagnosed as sarcoma due to its rapid growth and pathological features. It rarely presents as a chest wall tumor in young patients. Here, we report a case of nodular fasciitis involving the chest wall of an 18-year-old woman and its...

Nodular fasciitis is a benign, reactive, tumor-like lesion composed of fibroblasts and myofibroblasts. It typically occurs in the extremities and the trunk. Head and neck localization is 13-20%. As it grows rapidly, clinicians frequently misdiagnose it as an aggressive or a malignant lesion. Some lesions show moderate cellularity, mild cellular atypia, and mitosis histologically causing patholo...

Nodular fasciitis is a benign, reactive, fibroblastic proliferation in which nodules most commonly develop in the subcutaneous or superficial fascia of the extremities. The occurrence of these growths in the orbital region is relatively rare. Our intent is to report another orbital case of this benign fibroproliferative tumor and to provide a brief review of the pertinent medical literature. Th...

Although the cellular origin of Reed-Sternberg (RS) cells of classical Hodgkin's disease (HD) has been a controversial issue for many years, recent immunophenotypic and molecular studies have suggested that RS cells of a subset of classical HD cases may be related to B cells. To further define the immunophenotypic features and the differentiation stage of RS cells, a series of 56 HD samples, in...
