  • Title: [Aggressive fibromatoses. Treatment concept and results with special reference to ultrasound diagnosis].
    Author: Sinkwitz KD, Fischer R, Geissler S, Göbel P.
    Journal: Zentralbl Chir; 1986; 111(5):261-6. PubMed ID: 3518288.
    Abstract:
    Therapeutic tactics and control regime for aggressive fibromatosis are described in this paper, with reference being made to the authors' own patients. Locally delimited, wide excision without supporting radiotherapy is recommended also for recurrent cases. Anti-oestrogenic treatment has now been adopted to cope with locally delimited inoperability. The polytopic, usually congenital form of aggressive fibromatosis must be interpreted as a particularly unfavourable course with potential malignancy. Sonography so far has proved to be a suitable approach to pre-operative and postoperative screening.
