[Extra-abdominal aggressive fibromatosis: case report and literature review]
Abstract
The extra-abdominal aggressive fibromatosis is a locally aggressive non-metastasizing fibroproliferative tumor of the locomotive system with an extremely high recurrence rate. By means of a case report the treatment possibilities are discussed. The recommended treatment of choice is a wide resection where possible. The indications for radio-, chemo- or hormone therapy are presented.
