Abstract:
We report on a patient who developed postoperative spindle cell nodule one month following TURP for prostatic adenocarcinoma. The foregoing was compared with other benign fibrous lesions from our records: one case of nodular fasciitis and one case of proliferative myositis. Although they were all well-defined and clinically distinct disease entities, a very close relationship concerning their origin was demonstrated histologically and immunohistochemically.
