Abstract:
Desmoid-type fibromatosis following thoracotomy is rare and has been previously reported only in <20 cases; however, it might mimic chest wall recurrence of previous cancer and needs differential diagnosis. When the tumor location corresponded to the thoracotomy incision, we should consider desmoid-type fibromatosis as a differential diagnosis.
