Fasciitis is an inflammation of the fascia,[1] which is the connective tissue surrounding muscles, blood vessels and nerves.
In particular, it often involves one of the following diseases:
- Necrotizing fasciitis
- Plantar fasciitis
- Ischemic fasciitis[2], classified by the World Health Organization, 2020, as a specific tumor form in the category of fibroblastic and myofibroblastic tumors.[3]
- Eosinophilic fasciitis
- Paraneoplastic fasciitis
Calcific tendinitis is a form of tendinitis, a disorder characterized by deposits of hydroxyapatite (a crystalline calcium phosphate) in any tendon of the body, but most commonly in the tendons of the rotator cuff (shoulder), causing pain and inflammation. The condition is related to and may cause adhesive capsulitis ("frozen shoulder").
Calcific tendinitis most often occurs in females aged 30 to 60 years and occurs in 3–10% of the general population.[1][2] Calcifications are usually located within the supraspinatus tendon (80% of cases), followed by the infraspinatus (15% of cases) and subscapularis (5% of cases) tendons, but can be present in any tendon,[3] and they are present in 5% or more of asymptomatic shoulders in healthy adults.[4]

A ganglion cyst is a fluid-filled bump associated with a joint or tendon sheath.[3] They most often occur at the back of the wrist, followed by the front of the wrist.[3][4] Onset is often over months.[4]Typically there are no further symptoms.[3] Occasionally pain or numbness may occur.[3] Complications may include carpal tunnel syndrome.[4]
The cause is unknown.[3] The underlying mechanism is believed to involve an outpouching of the synovial membrane.[4] Risk factors include gymnastics.[3] Diagnosis is typically based on examination with light shining through the lesion being supportive.[4] Medical imaging may be done to rule out other potential causes.[3][4]
Treatment options include watchful waiting, splinting the affected joint, needle aspiration, or surgery.[3]About half the time they resolve on their own.[4] About 3 per 10,000 people newly develop ganglion of the wrist or hand a year.[5] They most commonly occur in young and middle aged females.[3]

Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS) is a rare histological form of cancer of connective tissue wherein the mesenchymally-derived malignant cells resemble the primitive developing skeletal muscle of the embryo. It is the most common soft tissue sarcoma occurring in children.[1] ERMS is also known as Fusion-Negative rhabdomyosarcoma (FN-RMS), as tumors of this subtype are unified by their lack of a PAX3-FOXO1 fusion oncogene (or other PAX fusions seen in alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma).[2]

A hibernoma is a benign neoplasm of vestigial brown fat. The term was originally used by the French anatomist Louis Gery in 1914.[1][2]

Pleomorphic lipomas, like spindle-cell lipomas, occur for the most part on the backs and necks of elderly men, and are characterized by floret giant cells with overlapping nuclei.[1]:625

Chondroid lipomas are deep-seated, firm, yellow tumors that characteristically occur on the legs of women. They exhibit a characteristic translocation t(11;16) with a resulting C11orf95-MKL2 fusion oncogene.[1]:625 [2]

Clear cell sarcoma is a rare form of cancer called a sarcoma.[1] It is known to occur mainly in the soft tissues and dermis. Rare forms were thought to occur in the gastrointestinal tract before they were discovered to be different and redesignated as GNET.
Recurrence is common.[2]
It has been associated with both EWSR1-ATF1 and EWSR1-CREB1 fusion transcripts.[3]
Clear cell sarcoma of the soft tissues in adults is not related to the pediatric tumor known as clear cell sarcoma of the kidney.[4]

Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) [2] is a rare locally aggressive malignant cutaneous soft-tissue sarcoma. DFSP develops in the connective tissue cells in the middle layer of the skin (dermis).[3] Estimates of the overall occurrence of DFSP in the United States are 0.8 to 4.5 cases per million persons per year.[4][5] In the United States, DFSP accounts for between 1 and 6 percent of all soft tissue sarcomas [6] and 18 percent of all cutaneous soft tissue sarcomas. In the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) tumor registry from 1992 through 2004, DFSP was second only to Kaposi sarcoma.

The term fibromatosis refers to a group of soft tissue tumors[1] which have certain characteristics in common, including absence of cytologic and clinical malignant features, a histology consistent with proliferation of well-differentiated fibroblasts, an infiltrative growth pattern, and aggressive clinical behavior with frequent local recurrence. It is classed by the World Health Organization as an intermediate soft tissue tumor related to the sarcoma family.
