Abstract

Desmoid tumor is histologically benign, but this tumor is clinically considered to be malignant. Surgical resection is one of the most effective therapeutic options for patients with this tumor and resection is the best choice for cases of recurrence. We experienced two cases of recurrence of thoracic desmoid tumor, and the patients were repeatedly treated by surgical resection. The patients were discharged without any complications, and careful follow up has been performed periodically. Therefore, we report on these cases of recurrent desmoid tumor along with a review of the related literature.

데스모이드 종양은 조직학적으로 양성이지만 임상적으로는 악성으로 취급된다. 완전절제가 최선이고 재발 시에도 재절제를 시행하는 것이 권장된다. 본원에서는 흉부에 발생한 데스모이드 종양에 대한 재발 2예를 경험하였고 재수술로써 완전히 절제하였다. 두 환자 모두 수술 후 양호한 경과를 보여 퇴원하였고, 현재는 특이 합병증 및 재발 없이 외래 관찰 중이다. 이에 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.
