Desmoids are locally aggressive fibrous tumors with a tendency to recur. Desmoids can be intraabdominal, in the abdominal wall, or extraabdominal. Complications, such as compression or invasion of adjacent structures, and abscess formation can occur. Treatment options include observation, local treatment (surgery, radiotherapy), or systemic therapy (conventional chemotherapy, molecular targeted agents).
