BACKGROUND/AIMS Although the standard treatment for desmoid tumours is complete surgical resection with wide margins, the optimal adjuvant treatment for recurrent or inoperable disease is unclear, often being based on sporadic immunohistochemical reports with a low number of cases. Therefore, a large immunohistochemical study was performed, to provide a theoretical basis for adjuvant treatment ...
متن کاملExtra-abdominal desmoid tumours.
Desmoid tumours are not common but have a distinct resemblance to fibrosarcomata. Their clinical appearance and progress should be recognised since failure to distinguish them from sarcomata could result in extensive and unnecessarily mutilating operations. Three cases of extra-abdominal desmoid tumours are reported. Two of the patients had tumours arising from multicentric foci in the same lim...

Despite their classification as benign, desmoid tumours are difficult to diagnose and manage. They are prone to recurrence and resection can be debilitating. Rarely, synchronous or metachronous multicentric desmoid tumours occur and may require further excision. Therefore, early detection of recurrence and multicentric tumours is vital. We present a case of metachronous desmoid tumours, and rev...

Desmoid tumours (DTs) are classified as extraor intraabdominal. The extra-abdominal DTs arise from fascial or muscoloaponeurotic structures predominantly of the abdominal wall (Fig 1a, 1b, 1c) and occasionally of the shoulder girdl...
