description | RATIONALE: Aggressive fibromatosis (AF) of abdominal wall is also called desmoid tumor, ligament tumor, fibrous tissue tumor hyperplasia, tendon membrane fibroma or soft tissue ligament fibroma, etc. Aggressive fibromatosis of abdominal wall was first described by MacFarlane in 1832, and it was named for the first time by Muller according to its general appearance and texture in 1838. This disease has been mistaken for a benign lesions for a long time because when the cells were examined by pathology often show normal mitosis, and distant metastases are not found clinically, but actually the disease is locally invasive and shows a local invasive growth. So it is a rare low-grade malignant soft tissue tumor. At present, the main treatment for the disease is operation, and radiotherapy and hormone therapy have a certain effect, but these therapies are not ideal. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 32-year-old woman, who underwent cesarean section three years ago came to the hospital for finding a mass on abdominal wall for half a month. DIAGNOSES: Mass of abdominal wall. INTERVENTIONS: Underwent surgery. OUTCOMES: Pathology: The lesion is aggressive fibromatosis of abdominal wall (ligament tumor of abdominal wall). LESSONS: We discussed the particularity of its clinical characteristics, treatment strategies and prognosis combined with literature review, and we think the surgeons need to pay high attention to this disease and make more patients get timely, correct and reasonable treatment, so as to improve the quality of life. |
