A rare cause of abdominal mass - mesenteric fibromatosis

Abstract

Abdominal fibromatosis includes sporadic, pelvic, mesenteric lesions and all fibromatose lesions related with Gardner Syndrome. Incidence is approximately 3 per million for all of them. It is usually localized in ileocolic mesentery, gastrocolic ligamentum and omentum. We describe a case who is 28-years-old, woman with sporadic mesenteric fibromatosis in this article. Mesenteric fibromatosis is well known with the high recurrence rate after resection. Mesenteric fibromatosis is locally aggressive tumor but metastasis is unusual. They must be treated as they can cause morbidity due to local aggressiveness and tendency to invade the adjacent organs. Although they are histologically benign lesions the biological behavior of this tumor is between benign fibrose lesions and fibrosarcomas. Surgical resection is the only curative method in these tumors. Distorsion of the adjacent organ, intestinal obstruction, hydronefrosis is inevitable if the tumor can not be resected. Resection with clear surgical margins is the only curative method in this histologically benign tumor.
