Nodular Fasciitis is a benign, but rapidly progressive myofibroblastic proliferation that may exert mass effect on structures within the ocular adnexa. Further challenging its diagnosis, Nodular Fasciitis is a histopathologic mimic of soft tissue sarcomas. This article will summarize the defining clinical, histopathologic, molecular genetic, and radiographic features of Nodular Fasciitis. Awareness of this diagnosis is essential for appropriate patient counseling, avoidance of unnecessary alarm from misclassification as an aggressive sarcoma, or confusion with relatively indolent lesions such as dermoid cysts.
