Περίληψη:
We describe a unique case of a de novo desmoid tumor of the posterior
mediastinum in a 21-year-old nulligravida. The tumor recurred twice
despite its histologically confirmed radical extirpations. Because of
the aggressive local behavior of desmoid tumors and their unusual
locations, which prevent wide excision margins, we favor the early
consideration of adjuvant therapy. (C) 1998 by The Society of Thoracic
