Popis: OBJECTIVE: To evaluate treatment outcomes in patients with desmoid tumors (DT) receiving local therapy with surgery alone, radiation therapy (RT) alone, or combined modality RT and surgery (CMT). METHODS: We performed a cross-sectional cohort study of 412 patients with non-mesenteric DTs who received local therapy at our institution between 1965 and 2018. RESULTS: Median follow-up time was 95 months (range, 1–509). Local recurrence occurred in 127 patients (31%) at a median time of 21 months (range, 3–295). The 5-year LC was 67%. Patient or tumor factors that were significantly associated with poorer 5-year LC on multivariable analysis included: age ≤30 years (57% vs. 75% > 30; HR 1.73, P=0.004), extremity location (57% vs. 71% non-extremity; HR 1.77, P=0.004), and large tumors (>10cm: 59%; HR 2.17, P=0.004; 5–10cm: 65%; HR 1.71, P=0.02; vs ≤5cm 76%). Subset analyses of these high risk patients revealed no local therapy strategy as superior for young patients ≤30 years (surgery P=0.33, HR 1.42; RT P=0.38, HR 1.36) or for large tumors >10cm (surgery P=0.46, HR 1.55; RT P=0.91, HR 0.91). However, for patients with extremity tumors, surgery alone was significantly associated with inferior LC (surgery P
