Overview

A case- review describing a desmoid in a young female. The tumor originated at the tendinuous attachment of the m. rectus abdominis on the pubic bone, which had had two relapses. During the third – so far the latest – procedure it required leftsided hemipelvectomy with resection of the rectum and a part of the vagina. The patient was instructed about the serious character of the disease, the requirement for the radical resection and about the requirement for a careful long-term follow-up of the patient after the procedure.

Key words:
desmoidal tumor – hemipelvectomy
