Desmoid Tumor of the Anterior Abdominal Wall in Female Patients: Comparison with Endometriosis

Abstract: In female patients presenting a tumor of the lower abdominal wall especially after cesarian section, an endometriotic tumor as well as an aggressive desmoid tumor should be considered. Symptoms in correlation with the monthly period can facilitate the presurgical differentiation between endometriosis and fibromatosis. Ultrasound reveals the typical location of both tumors and its remarkable sonographic appearance. In the clinical practice, the desmoid fibromatosis of the lower abdominal wall is a very rare dis… Show more

“…Histológicamente, consisten en una proliferación de células fusiformes de apariencia benigna separadas por fibras gruesas de colágeno ( fig. 2C y 2D) 12,13,[17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25] . Las células neoplásicas tienen núcleos pequeños y de contornos regulares, donde las mitosis son muy infrecuentes y no se observa necrosis (lo que apoya la naturaleza benigna de la lesión).…”
