Benign and malignant soft tissue tumors have many overlapping and potentially confusing imaging features. Here we discuss imaging and clinical features of 6 soft tissue tumor mimics: myositis ossificans, acute traumatic hematoma, geyser lesion, tumoral calcinosis, gout, and myonecrosis. These 6 lesions are some of the most common benign soft tissue mass-like lesions erroneously labeled as "malignancy." Familiarity with these lesions can potentially spare the patient biopsy, other invasive and noninvasive work-up, and anxiety.
良性和恶性软组织肿瘤有许多重叠且可能令人混淆的影像学特征。在这里,我们讨论 6 种软组织肿瘤模拟物的影像学和临床特征:骨化性肌炎、急性创伤性血肿、喷泉样病变、肿瘤性钙化、痛风和肌坏死。这 6 种病变是一些最常见的良性软组织肿块样病变,错误地被标记为“恶性”。熟悉这些病变可以避免患者进行活检、其他有创和无创检查以及焦虑。
