ABSTRACT

Mammary desmoid fibromatosis is a rare pathology that clinically and radiologically mimics a malignant tumor. It is characterized by a strictly local evolution but with a tendency to infiltration and recurrence. Its diagnosis is based on histological examination and its treatment is mainly surgical. The differential diagnosis arises mainly with metaplastic spindle cell carcinoma. Complete surgical excision with healthy margins (up to 3cm) is the treatment of choice, radiotherapy remains a therapeutic option in addition to surgery in incomplete resections and in the event of multiple recurrences. Through our case and a review of the literature, we will try to focus on the diagnosis of this rare entity and its management since it will condition the prognosis.
