Wide Excision of a Desmoid Tumor of the Anterior Abdominal Wall with Subsequent Reconstruction.

Desmoid tumors are benign tumors of mesenchymal origin with a complex course of the disease, due to absence of a capsule, infiltrative growth, heterogeneous structure and shape, the true extent of which is difficult to assess before surgery. Despite its benign nature, the recurrence rate reaches 25-50% of cases, and surgical treatment is often accompanied by a number of difficulties with a decrease in the quality of life of patients. In the presented clinical case, a wide excision of desmoid tumor was performed, followed by reconstruction, which ensured a good postoperative result while preserving oncological principles.
