  • Title: [Intra-abdominal fibromatosis].
    Author: Brătucu E, Marin D, Ungureanu D, Gheorghiu D, Dragoncea C.
    Journal: Chirurgia (Bucur); 1995; 44(2):45-53. PubMed ID: 8722148.
    Abstract:
    The authors describe three cases of intraabdominal fibromathosis: two cases with intraperithoneal location and another one with retroperithoneal location. All of them are benign noncapsulated tumours of the fibrous tissue with tendancy to local recurrence. Abdominal fibromathosis may determine any form of acute or chronic digestive manifestations. Only to the accuracy of the histo-pathological examination is due the diagnosis between fibromathosis and fibrosarcoma, reactive fibrosis, mixoma and nodular fasceitis. The surgical excision must not be economical and the association with radiant therapy must also be considered.
