Isolated mesenteric fibromatosis, a rare intraabdominal tumor, involves benign fibroblast proliferation. This case report details a 19-year-old patient diagnosed via imaging and treated with surgical removal.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Intraabdominal fibromatoses are rare tumors, often associated with Gardner's syndrome.
  • Mesenteric fibromatosis presents as a benign proliferation of fibroblasts infiltrating surrounding tissues.
  • Diagnosis typically involves imaging modalities like ultrasound and CT scans.

Observation:

  • A 19-year-old female patient presented with isolated mesenteric fibromatosis.
  • The patient had no prior surgical history and experienced a normal pregnancy.
  • The tumor was successfully diagnosed using diagnostic imaging.

Findings:

  • The mesenteric fibromatosis was confirmed as a benign fibroblast proliferation.
  • Complete surgical extirpation was the chosen treatment modality.

  • The patient's case represents an isolated occurrence without typical associations.

    • Implications:

    • Highlights the importance of considering mesenteric fibromatosis in differential diagnoses of intraabdominal masses.
    • Emphasizes surgical extirpation as the primary treatment for isolated mesenteric fibromatosis.
    • Contributes to understanding rare presentations of fibromatosis, particularly in young individuals.
