A propósito de un caso; paciente joven con tumor desmoide de mama diagnosticado tras tumorectomía

Abstract

We report the case of a 16-year-old patient with no relevant gynecologic history, who was diagnosed with a phyllodes tumor in the border between the lower and upper outer quadrants of the right breast. The patient was treated with a tumorectomy/lumpectomy, and after pathological study of the specimen, was diagnosed with a desmoid breast tumor. Given the rarity of this entity, and the positive microscopic surgical margins, we consider that a literature review of desmoid breast tumor (etiology, clinical presentation and treatment) is timely.
