Abstract

Cranial fasciitis is a rare variant of nodular fasciitis. It is a benign condition with features resembling sarcoma, seen principally in young males. It involves the skull bones and grows at a rapid pace. Accurate diagnosis and surgical excision is the key to management. Prognosis is good with recurrence rare. By 1992, 17 cases had been reported in the literature. The present case is the first reported in Pakistan. It presented as a post-auricular mass.
