Proliferative faciitis
DD
Ganglioneuroma: background spindle cell proliferation similar to neurofibroma, ganglion cells and spindle cells are positive for neural markers such as S100
Nodular fasciitis: no or very few ganglion-like cells
Proliferative myositis: histologically identical, but intramuscular location
Rhabdomyosarcoma: background spindle cells appear malignant rather than fasciitis-like; rhabdomyoblasts may have striations; desmin+, myogenin+
Sarcoma: large mass, nuclear atypia and pleomorphism in background spindle cells, atypical mitotic figures, often tumor necrosis
