Popis: |
Abdominal desmoid tumor or fibromatosis is a benign non-urological connective tumor which can be mistaken for a urological tumor due to its localization (generally in muscles and aponeurosis of the abdominal wall). It is locally invasive and potentially recurrent. We report on a 53-year-old male with abdominal desmoid tumor whose only symptom was pain. The clinical diagnosis was corroborated by the US and CT findings and confirmed by anatomopathological findings. Wide local surgical excision is the treatment of choice since hormone therapy, radiotherapy and chemotherapy achieved scant results. |
