Recurrent desmoplastic fibroma

L Summers, L R Matz

    International Journal of Oral Surgery
    |April 1, 1976

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Recurrent desmoplastic fibromas can aggressively spread over a decade after incomplete removal. Complete surgical excision with adequate margins is crucial for preventing recurrence of these locally invasive tumors.

    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Surgical Pathology

    Background:

    • Desmoplastic fibromas are rare, locally aggressive soft tissue tumors.
    • Recurrence is a significant concern, particularly after incomplete excision.

    Observation:

    • Two cases of desmoplastic fibroma recurrence are presented, with initial incomplete removal over 10 years prior.
    • Both cases demonstrated slow but aggressive local spread of recurrent tumor.
    • One case also involved an associated amputation neuroma.

    Findings:

    • Incomplete surgical excision of desmoplastic fibromas leads to a high risk of late recurrence.
    • Desmoplastic fibromas exhibit locally invasive behavior, necessitating wide surgical margins.
    • Amputation neuromas can be a co-occurring condition with recurrent desmoplastic fibromas.

    Implications:

    • Emphasizes the critical need for complete primary surgical excision with wide margins for desmoplastic fibromas.
    • Highlights the importance of long-term follow-up for patients with incompletely excised desmoplastic fibromas.
    • Suggests consideration of associated pathologies, such as amputation neuromas, in recurrent cases.
