Nodular fasciitis(NF) is a proliferative disease of fibroblasts and myofibroblasts that generally affects subcutaneous tissue, muscle tissue, and fascia. NF usually occurs in young adults aged 20-40 and is more common in the upper extremities and relatively rare in the region of the head and neck. Here, we report on two patients with NF in the ear and nose. Under general anesthesia, the masses of NF were completely resected along the safety margin. The patients recovered well after surgery and there was no recurrence after more than half a year of follow-up.
