Abstract

A desmoid tumour is a type of benign neoplasm arising from the proliferation of fibroblast cells. Although histologically benign, retroperitoneal desmoid tumours resection can be challenging to surgeons due to its infiltrative nature. Surgery can be mutilating and pose significant morbidity and mortality. We present a case of a 27-year-old lady with retroperitoneal mass presented with chronic abdominal pain.
