    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Surgical Pathology

    Background:

    • Desmoid tumors, also known as fibromatoses, are benign fibrous growths with local infiltrative behavior and a propensity for recurrence.
    • These tumors do not metastasize.

    Observation:

    • A 31-year-old woman presented with epigastric pain and a palpable mass.
    • A large tumor (210 x 140 x 115 mm) was surgically excised from the lesser sac.
    • The tumor compressed the splenic vein, leading to left-sided portal hypertension.

    Findings:

    • Histological examination confirmed a typical desmoid tumor.
    • Post-operative recovery was uneventful, and portal hypertension resolved after mass removal.

    Implications:

    • Complete surgical excision is crucial for managing desmoid tumors.
    • Long-term follow-up is essential to monitor for recurrence, even after successful initial treatment.
