    A desmoid tumour is slow growing fibromatosis with aggressive infiltration of adjacent tissue and extremely unusual systemic metastases. We report on a female patient aged 25 years who had a mass in lower abdomen for 2 years. There was no previous history of any surgical intervention. Preoperative evaluation included ultrasound and computed tomography. Patient underwent primary resection with wide margins. Histology revealed a desmoid tumour.
