If the findings still remain unclear, microscopic examination of fine needle asperates taken from the tumor will, when combined with the imaging findings, the lesion’s natural history, and its clinical presentation, likely confirm the diagnosis of FMC in virtually all cases. Treatment and prognosis
Prompt diagnosis and treatment of FMS is crucial for avoiding the impairments that may follow long-term mal-positioning of infants head such as permanent facial asymmetry, flattened head, loss of neck mobility, and scoliosis. About 95% of infants with minimal limitations in their heads mobility show improvements in this mobility after 4 weeks of an active home stimulation program (i.e. observation, massage, and active and passive stretching) while ~91% of infants with more severe movement limitations show good results after 3 sessions of targeted physiotherapy over a 3–4 month period. The recommended treatment for infants who show no improvements in mobility after 1 year of physical therapy or who initially present at >12 months of age is surgical tenotomy (i.e. cutting) of one of the tendons on the involved sternocleidomastoid muscle. Tenotomy may use the open surgical (i.e. cutting of skin) approach or endoscopic (i.e. percutaneous) approach. The overall prognosis of FMS tumors is good using these treatment measures.Infants presenting with FMS should be examined for the presence of hip dysplasia. See also

Placentitis is an inflammation of the placenta. The main forms of placentitis are:

Villitis, inflammation of chorionic villi. Intervillositis, inflammation of the intervillous space.It may be caused by vertically transmitted infections. Because of the close proximity, placentitis often occurs simultaneously as funisitis (inflammation of the umbilical cord) and chorioamnionitis (inflammation of the fetal membranes). Chronic lymphocytic placental inflammation occurs in 5% to 15% of pregnancies, and are generally not associated with documented infection. Villitis of unknown etiology
Villitis of unknown etiology (VUE), also known as chronic villitis, is a placental injury. VUE is an inflammatory condition involving the chorionic villi (placental villi). VUE is a recurrent condition and can be associated with intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). IUGR involves the poor growth of the foetus, stillbirth, miscarriage, and premature delivery. VUE recurs in about 1/3 of subsequent pregnancies.VUE is a common lesion characterised by inflammation in the placental chorionic villi. VUE is also characterised by the transfer of maternal lymphocytes across the placenta.VUE is diagnosed in 7–10% placentas in pregnancies. Roughly 80% of the VUE cases are in term placentas (greater than 37 weeks of pregnancy). A case of VUE in a placenta less than 32 weeks old should be screened for infectious villitis. Chronic histiocytic intervillositis
Chronic Histiocytic Intervillositis (CHI or CHIV) also known as Chronic Intervillositis of Unknown (A)etiology (CIUE) and Massive Chronic Intervillositis (MCI) is defined as a diffuse infiltration of mononuclear cells (histiocytes, lymphocytes, monocytes) of maternal origin into the intervillous space within the placenta.
