Abstract

Desmoid tumor is a rare soft tissue neoplasm arising from musculo-aponeurotic tissues constituting 0.03% of all neoplasms with a high rate of local recurrence after surgery. Radiotherapy may be used to prevent local recurrence. We report a giant desmoid tumour arising from the posterior abdominal wall / retroperitoneum. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
