Histologically the process contains characteristic round cells with basophilic cytoplasm and prominent nucleoli (ganglion-like cells). The muscle fibers are intact. Differential diagnosis includes proliferative fasciitis, nodular fasciitis and sarcomas. Proliferative myositis is benign process cured by surgery
