Desmoid fibromatosis is an uncommon locally aggressive fibroblastic/myofibroblastic neoplasm with no metastatic ability. The pathologic diagnosis is usually straightforward but can be difficult in small biopsies and in recurrences associated with scars from a prior procedure. Immunohistochemistry , specifically...
Desmoid-type fibromatosis (DTF, aggressive fibromatosis) is a non-metastasizing mesenchymal neoplasm of deep soft tissue with a tendency towards local recurrence. Genetic alterations affecting canonical Wnt/β-catenin signaling are reported in the majority of DTF. While most sporadic DTF harbor somatic ...
Desmoid-type fibromatosis is a rare, locally infiltrative, mesenchymal neoplasm that is associated with high rates of local recurrence but lacks the potential to metastasise. The disease affects younger individuals, with a peak age of 30 years, and is the most common cause of an anterior ...
