Ultrasonic diagnosis of abdominal wall desmoid tumor
Abstract:
Abdominal wall desmoid tumor is a rare, locally invasive proliferation of mature fibrous tissue which does not metastasize. It usually presents as an asymptomatic mass, and occurs most frequently in young women after childbirth. All three of our patients showed an echo-free mass deep in the abdominal wall with poor sonic transmission. Ultrasound cannot only accurately localize the lesion, but allows the radiologist to suggest the correct diagnosis.

Ultrasound I: Abdominal Ultrasonography
Abdominal ultrasonography, commonly known as abdominal ultrasound, is a vital, non-invasive medical imaging technique widely used in healthcare.
Procedure:
This diagnostic tool allows the clinician to visually inspect internal structures within the abdomen, including vital organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and spleen.
The abdominal ultrasound process begins with applying a special gel to the patient's skin over the abdomen. This gel enhances the...
