Several studies have previously documented the development of complications stemming from injection with one of the various COVID-19 vaccines. No study, however, has discussed the spontaneous development of a soft tissue mass shortly after a COVID-19 vaccine injection. We report on 66-year-old female with concerns of a growing shoulder mass, 2 weeks after receiving a COVID-19 vaccine booster. Initial work-up with X-ray and MRI was concerning for a soft tissue neoplasm, specifically a soft tissue sarcoma. Subsequent ultrasound guided biopsy demonstrated a benign granulomatous lesion. No further management was required as the lesion spontaneously resolved during a 3-month follow-up period.
此前有多项研究记录了接种各种新冠疫苗之一后出现的并发症。然而,尚无研究讨论过新冠疫苗接种后不久软组织肿块的自发形成情况。我们报告了一名66岁女性,在接种新冠疫苗加强针两周后,因肩部肿块不断增大前来就诊。最初的X线和磁共振成像检查结果怀疑是软组织肿瘤,特别是软组织肉瘤。随后的超声引导下活检显示为良性肉芽肿性病变。由于病变在3个月的随访期内自发消退,无需进一步处理。
