Nodular fasciitis is rarely reported in breast. It is benign reactive proliferative lesion of fibroblast. A 65 year old female presented to surgical department for left breast mass since 2 months duration, rapidly enlarging without any regional lymphadenopathy. Mammography showed hyperdensity masses with irregular margin. On FNAC reported as benign spindle cell lesion. Left sided two breast masses measuring 4 x 3.3 x 2.5cm and 2.0 x 1.6 x 0.5cm were excised and on histopathology reported as Nodular Fasciitis of left breast. We are presenting this extremely rare case of nodular fasciitis of breast for its clinical, radiological and histopathological findings.
