An extraabdominal desmoid tumor of the shoulder occurring in a middle-aged woman without Gardner's syndrome is described. Two punch biopsy specimens from the tumor were initially interpreted as representing scar tissue; a third incisional biopsy specimen demonstrated the characteristic features of a desmoid tumor. Because desmoid tumors are locally aggressive, early diagnosis and treatment are crucial to minimize morbidity and mortality. Typical clinical and histologic findings characteristic of an extraabdominal desmoid tumor are described, and treatment options are reviewed.
本文描述了一名无加德纳综合征的中年女性肩部发生的腹外硬纤维瘤。最初对该肿瘤的两份穿刺活检标本被解读为瘢痕组织;第三份切开活检标本显示出硬纤维瘤的特征性表现。由于硬纤维瘤具有局部侵袭性,早期诊断和治疗对于将发病率和死亡率降至最低至关重要。文中描述了腹外硬纤维瘤典型的临床和组织学表现,并对治疗方案进行了综述。
