I think there are very few large, basophilic, ganglion-like cells. Another possibility is intramuscular nodular fasciitis, a related lesion.

Well done everyone for the correct diagnosis. This is not a common lesion we will find in our routine dermatopathology however you all made the correct diagnosis because the features are very distinctive.

The final diagnosis reported is Proliferative fasciitis/ proliferative myositis.
