{Abstract}: METHODS: We report a case of intraneural nodular fasciitis in the forearm initially suspected as a schwannoma, emphasizing the importance of accurate diagnosis. A 40-year-old woman presented with mass on the lateral aspect of her right forearm and radial neuropathy symptoms for 2 months. An excisional biopsy and histopathological examination confirmed nodular fasciitis. Postoperative evaluation at 4.5 years found no pain, paralysis, or recurrence.
CONCLUSIONS: Awareness of nodular fasciitis is crucial to prevent misdiagnosis and unnecessary treatment. Despite its rapid growth, nodular fasciitis generally has an excellent prognosis without long-term consequences.
