The therapeutic procedure for desmoids in patients with diffuse polyposis of the large intestine
1991
: Desmoid was diagnosed in 54 out of 632 patients who had been operated on for diffuse polyposis. The age of patients with desmoid ranged from 18-61 years. Twenty of them had desmoid in the anterior abdominal wall whereas 30--in the small intestine mesentery or retroperitoneal space. Dissection was carried out in 14 out of 18 patients with anterior abdominal wall desmoid. Recurrence was registered in 6 patients. Dissection was attempted in 12 out of 26 patients with intraabdominal desmoid but radical procedure could be performed in 5 only. In a group of 4 patients with synchronous desmoid of both sites, both tumors were removed in one patient only whereas in the other 3--only anterior abdominal wall tumor could be dissected.
