Desmoid tumours of the anterior abdominal wall
1The Royal Marsden Hospital, London, UK.
Aims:
To review the surgical management and outcomes for large desmoid tumours of the abdominal wall.
Methods:
Seven patients with large desmoid tumours of the anterior abdominal wall were treated by wide local excision and reconstruction with two layers of Marlex V mesh (Bard, Galway, Ireland).
Results:
No patient having initial surgery at this hospital has either a significant residual functional deficit or developed a recurrence.
Conclusions:
Large desmoid tumours of the abdominal wall are safely and adequately managed with abdominal wall resection followed by mesh reconstruction.
