Abstract
Nodular fasciitis occurring at the anterior abdominal wall in a 12-year-old female is reported. Nodular fasciitis has recently been recognized as a kind of neoplasm and its characteristic fusion genes such as MYH9-USP6 have been reported. The mass reported here occurred in a pediatric patient and the mass originated at the abdominal wall, whose clinical features were extremely rare.
