Tumor Progression02:07

Tumor Progression

7.7K
Tumor progression is a phenomenon where the pre-formed tumor acquires successive mutations to become clinically more aggressive and malignant. In the 1950s, Foulds first described the stepwise progression of cancer cells through successive stages.
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...

Metastasis02:30

Metastasis

6.7K
Metastasis is the spread of cancer cells from the original site to distant locations in the body. Cancer cells can spread via blood vessels (hematogenous) as well as lymph vessels in the body.
Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition
The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition or EMT is a developmental process commonly observed in wound healing, embryogenesis, and cancer metastasis. EMT is induced by transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) or receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) ligands, which further...

Summary

We report a rare case of a rapidly growing sporadic mesenteric desmoid tumor (DT) in a 62-year-old woman. This aggressive tumor required surgical resection due to its significant size increase over 16 months.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Radiology
  • Surgical Pathology

Background:

  • Desmoid tumors (DTs) are rare fibroblastic neoplasms.
  • Mesenteric desmoid tumors can exhibit unpredictable growth patterns.
