Moreover, post-ablation inflammation can confound imaging interpretation, mimicking viable tumor tissue [12]. This study aims to investigate whether combining key MRI features—T2 signal intensity, enhancement characteristics, and nodularity—can collectively enhance the prediction of extra-abdominal DT ...
Histologic sections usually resemble those of an infiltrating fibrous tumor, a desmoid lesion. The radiographic pattern may be similar to any diffuse abdominal retroperitoneal tumor, metastatic disease, lymphoma, or possibly retractile mesenteritis. The clinical setting usually differentiates these entities....
Aggressive fibromatosis (also called desmoid tumor) occurs as a sporadic lesion or as part of Familial Adenomatous Polyposis, which is caused by germ line mutations in the Adenomatous polyposis Coli (APC) gene. APC is involved in the regulation of the cellular level of beta-catenin, which is ...
Desmoid tumor of the breast is a rare benign entity that usually is mistaken for carcinoma clinically and radiologically. We report two cases of desmoid tumor of the breast detected by mammography screening using digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT). The larger tumor was detected at both full-field...
radiation therapy in the setting of negative margins remains to be determined.23 Achieving adequate surgical margins is paramount because desmoids have a tendency to recur locally, with recurrence rates of 25% to 75%.22,25 Chondrosarcoma is the most common malignant bony tumor of the chest wall...
