Postoperative lumbar fusion paraspinal desmoid tumor case report

Desmoid tumors are rare soft tissue tumors with slow growth and high recurrence rates. They typically arise sporadically in the abdominal wall or retroperitoneum, with a few rare cases reported after trauma and surgery. Postoperative desmoid tumors in adults are very rare with only 7 reported cases involving the paraspinal location. This is the first reported case of a male patient with a postoperative paraspinal desmoid tumor.
