Desmoid tumors (fibromatoses) are rare but locally aggressive tumors that do not metastasize. They are non-encapsulated, well-differentiated lesions made of fibroblasts and collagen, which mainly appear in the mesentery and abdominal wall. Rarely, these tumors can also occur in breasts, making up approximately 0.2% of all breast neoplasms. Treatment typically includes surgical excision and/or medical management. We describe a case of a 31-year-old female presenting with a mass in her left axilla that was biopsy proven to be a desmoid tumor. In this case report, we discuss the various imaging findings present on ultrasound, mammography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging.
韧带样瘤(纤维瘤病)罕见,但具有局部侵袭性,不会发生转移。它们是由成纤维细胞和胶原蛋白构成的无包膜、分化良好的病变,主要出现在肠系膜和腹壁。这些肿瘤很少也会发生于乳腺,约占所有乳腺肿瘤的0.2%。治疗通常包括手术切除和/或药物治疗。我们报告一例31岁女性,其左腋窝出现肿块,活检证实为韧带样瘤。在本病例报告中,我们讨论了超声、乳腺X线摄影、计算机断层扫描和磁共振成像上的各种影像学表现。
