Recurrent desmoplastic fibroma
Abstract:
Two cases of recurrent desmoplastic fibroma are reported and the relevant literature reviewed. In both cases the original lesion was incompletely removed more than 10 years previously and the slow but aggressive spread of the recurrences is documented. Desmoplastic fibromas are locally invasive tumors and primary surgical excision should be accomplished together with a margin of normal tissue. The second case also presented with an associated amputation neuroma and this topic is briefly discussed.

The first-ever tumor suppressor gene called Rb was identified in retinoblastoma - a rare eye tumor in children. In inherited forms of the disease, a child inherits one defective copy of the Rb gene, which predisposes them to retinoblastoma. However,...
