ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Objective:
Extra-abdominal desmoid tumor (EDT) is a rare condition, caused by proliferation of fibroblasts. Despite being a benign tumor, it is locally aggressive and has unpredictable clinical behavior. The objective of this study is to present the clinical outcomes of patients with EDT treated surgically between 1995 and 2016.Methods:
This is a retrospective series of 23 patients with histopathological diagnosis of EDT that underwent surgery at the orthopedic oncology service of our hospital. The information was obtained from the institute's clinical and pathology reports.Results:
A total of 223 medical records with histopathological reports were evaluated. Only 23 cases of EDT were included in the present study. The mean age was 22.5 years. Twelve (52.2%) patients had the tumor on the lower limbs, seven (30.4%) on the upper limbs and four (17.4%) cases were reported on the back. Five (21.7%) patients had tumors measuring less than 5 cm, while eighteen (78.3%) patients had tumors measuring more than 5 cm. All patients underwent surgery as the definitive treatment in our institute. Twelve (52.2%) cases presented negative margins (NM) and eleven (47.8%) cases had positive margins (PM). Local recurrence (LR) occurred in eleven (47.8%) patients.Conclusion:
Impairment of the surgical margin was the only prognostic factor found for LR of EDT. Level of Evidence IV, Case Series.RESUMO
RESUMO Objetivo:
O tumor desmoide extra-abdominal (TDE) é raro, formado por proliferação de fibroblastos. Apesar de ser um tumor benigno, é localmente agressivo e tem comportamento clínico imprevisível. O objetivo desta pesquisa é apresentar os resultados clínicos obtidos nos pacientes com TDE, tratados cirurgicamente entre 1995 e 2016.Métodos:
Trata-se de uma série retrospectiva de 23 pacientes com diagnóstico anatomopatológico de TDE, tratados cirurgicamente no serviço de oncologia ortopédica de nosso hospital. A informação foi obtida dos relatos clínicos e patológicos do instituto.Resultados:
Um total de 223 prontuários com relato anatomopatológico foi revisado. Apenas 23 casos de TDE foram incluídos no presente estudo. A média de idade foi de 22,5 anos. Doze (52,2%) casos se localizaram nos membros inferiores, sete (30,4%) casos nos membros superiores e quatro (17,4%) casos se localizaram no dorso. Cinco (21,7%) casos tinham tamanho < 5 cm e 18 (78,3%) casos tinham tamanho > 5 cm. Todos os pacientes receberam tratamento cirúrgico como terapia definitiva no instituto. Doze (52,2%) casos apresentaram margens livres (ML) e onze (47,8%) casos tinham margens comprometidas (MC). A recorrência local (RL) ocorreu em onze (47,8%) pacientes.Conclusão:
O comprometimento da margem cirúrgica foi o único fator de prognóstico encontrado para a RL do TDE. Nível de Evidência IV, Série de Casos.
