  • Title: Desmoid tumors of the bilateral breasts in a patient without Gardner syndrome: a case report and review of literature.
    Author: Brown CS, Jeffrey B, Korentager R, Hughes K.
    Journal: Ann Plast Surg; 2012 Aug; 69(2):220-2. PubMed ID: 21629058.
    Abstract:
    Desmoid tumors constitute 0.02% to 0.03% of all tumors. Consequently, few case reports exist for breast desmoids, even fewer identifying bilateral disease. We present a case report of a patient with bilateral breast desmoids and shoulder desmoid without evidence of FAP or Gardner syndrome. This case report explores the clinical, radiographic, pathologic, and treatment elements for desmoid tumors as well as a review of the literature.
