A Case Study of Abdominal Wall Desmoid Tumor in a 33-Year-Old Woman

Desmoid tumors, also known as aggressive fibromatosis, are rare, benign soft tissue neoplasms characterized by locally invasive growth. These tumors originate from fibroblasts and commonly occur in the abdominal wall, particularly in females of reproductive age. Although desmoid tumors are non-metastatic, they can infiltrate surrounding tissues, leading to significant morbidity and a high recurrence rate following incomplete surgical excision. The exact etiology of desmoid tumors remains unclear; however, genetic mutations, hormonal influences, and trauma are considered contributing factors. In this case study, we present the clinical features, imaging characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment of a desmoid tumor in the abdominal wall of a 35-year-old woman. surgical excision.
