UNASSIGNED: The first case is a male that presented with urinary obstruction symptoms and underwent surgical resection of the tumor that extended into the left kidney. The second case is a female with a history of recurrent desmoid tumors of the thigh and was incidentally diagnosed with retroperitoneal DF on imaging. She underwent tumor resection and radiotherapy; however, the tumor recurred with urinary obstruction symptoms that required another surgical resection. Histopathological characteristics and radiological imaging of both cases are described below.
UNASSIGNED: Desmoid tumors often recur, thus significantly influencing the quality of life which is reflected in one of our cases. Surgery remains a mainstay treatment, and both cases presented in this report required surgical resection of the tumors as symptomatic and curative measures.
UNASSIGNED: Retroperitoneal DF is a rare entity, and our cases add to the scarce literature available on the topic, which may well contribute to the formulation of practice-changing recommendations and guidelines focused on this rare variant of DF.
■第一个病例是一名男性,表现为尿路梗阻症状,并接受了延伸到左肾的肿瘤的手术切除。第二例是一名女性,有大腿复发性纤维瘤的病史,并在影像学上偶然诊断为腹膜后DF。她接受了肿瘤切除和放疗;然而,肿瘤复发并伴有尿路梗阻症状,需要再次手术切除。两种情况的组织病理学特征和放射学成像如下所述。
■纤维瘤经常复发,从而显著影响生活质量,这反映在我们的一个案例中。手术仍然是主要的治疗手段,本报告中提出的这两个病例都需要手术切除肿瘤作为对症和治愈措施。
■腹膜后DF是一种罕见的实体,我们的案例增加了关于这个主题的稀缺文献,这很可能有助于制定针对这种罕见的DF变体的实践改变建议和指南。
