Articular masses comprise various disease entities including benign or malignant proliferative processes and other non-neoplastic processes such as infection, deposition diseases, vascular malformations, and other lesions. Many diseases that lead to intra-articular or para-articular masses have distinct imaging features, particularly on MRI. Radiologists can localize masses to the joint space by knowing the articular anatomy and can reach a suggested diagnosis by looking at precise imaging findings.

Background: Tenosynovial giant cell tumor is a rare soft tissue tumor of the synovium of joint, bursae, or tendon sheath. It is divided into localized or diffuse types on the basis of the growth pattern. Localized tenosynovial giant cell tumors are usually benign and treated successfully by excision.

A rare instance of extravascular lipomas located over the subclavian vein in a woman in her early 60s presented unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to their close proximity to critical structures. Lipomas, which are the most commonly occurring benign soft tissue tumours, are typically composed of mature adipocytes. Although lipomas can develop in any region of the body, they are most commonly found in the subcutaneous tissues of the trunk and proximal limbs.

Synovial sarcoma is a malignant soft tissue tumor of uncertain differentiation. It is typically seen in the deep soft tissue of the extremities; however, it has been reported to occur anywhere in the body. Synovial sarcoma by histomorphology has multiple subtypes, including monophasic spindle cell, biphasic and poorly differentiated subtypes.

Myxomas are a group of benign tumors that have a common histologic appearance of fibrous and myxoid ground substance. According to literature, myxomas often occur between the ages of 30 and 50 years. Very often, intraoral soft tissue myxoma can be misinterpreted as malignant and is difficult to differentiate from other tumors with myxoid stroma.

Pathological crystallization within soft tissues often yields biominerals with properties differing from those of their geological or synthetic counterparts. Microcalcifications (MCs) are abundant in breast tumors, particularly in non-invasive lesions, such as ductal carcinoma (DCIS). Given the challenge of predicting DCIS progression into invasive cancer, it has been suggested that MCs can be leveraged to inform DCIS prognosis.

Objectives: Ossifying fibromyxoid tumor (OFMT) is a rare soft tissue neoplasm of uncertain histogenesis. Most OFMTs have benign behavior, and many harbor gene fusions involving the PHD finger protein 1 (PHF1), such as EP400::PHF1, MEAF6::PHF1, EPC1::PHF1, and PHF1::TFE3. The PHF1::TFE3 fusion is unique because PHF1 is at 5' instead of residing at 3' in the other fusions.

Myofibromatosis is a proliferative disorder characterized by the development of soft tissue neoplasms referred to as myofibromas that predominantly occur in infants and young children. These lesions have been described using varied terminologies since they were first reported in 1951. However, these neoplasms are histopathologically characterized by benign fibroblast and myofibroblast proliferation containing a biphasic presentation of spindle-shaped cells surrounding a central zone of less differentiated cells arranged in a hemangiopericytoma-like pattern in all cases.

Introduction And Importance: Hibernomas are benign soft tissue tumors containing prominent brown adipocytes that resemble normal brown fat, they occur in a wide age range (from 2 to 75 years) and make up for about 1 % of all adipocytic tumors <2 % of benign fatty neoplasms. They have traditionally been regarded as benign tumors with no potential for malignancy; due to their similarity in clinical and radiographical presentation, they are often misdiagnosed as malignant tumors like liposarcomas. While these tumors are generally considered non-malignant, their distinctive characteristics and uncommon occurrence make them an intriguing subject for medical study.

Leiomyomas and schwannomas are both types of rare benign soft tissue tumours. Leiomyomas are more commonly found in the lower limbs than in the upper extremities, while schwannomas are rare peripheral nerve sheath tumours that can occur in different anatomical regions. However, they rarely occur in the saphenous nerve.
