Abstract
Fibromatosis that arises in musculoaponeurotic structures
of the abdominal wall is called abdominal fibromatosis, abdominal desmoid tumor
(DT), or aggressive fibromatosis. Fibromatoses occur at various anatomic
locations with different clinical features. Abdominal fibromatosis tends to
occur in young women. Conversely, in children is an extremely rare condition. Herein,
we report the case of a 15-year-old boy with desmoid tumor. He was referred to
our department because of a growing painful
mass in the right lumbar area. There was no history of known trauma or surgery
prior to the time. He was active wrestler. Ultrasonography demonstrated a solid
and relatively well-circumscribed mass. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated
a well-defined tumor originating from the abdominal transversal muscle and
internal abdominal oblique muscle fascia. The mass was total excised. The
histological diagnosis was desmoid tumor. In conclusion, in child patients
presenting a painful tumors of the lower abdominal wall as well as DT should be
considered. Recurrent sports trauma during wrestling can be a factor for this
tumor, in our case.

Abstract
Karın duvarının kas-aponörotik yapılarından
köken alan fibromatozislere abdominal
fibromatozis, abdominal desmoid tümör (DT), ya da agressif fibromatozis adı
verilir. Fibromatozisler farklı anatomik lokalizasyonlarda farklı klinik
özelliklerde olabilirler. DT genç kadınlarda daha sıktır. Çocuklarda ise
oldukça ender bir durumdur. Bu yazıda 15 yaşında desmoid tümörlü bir erkek olgu
sunuldu. Hasta hastanemize sağ lumbal bölgede büyüyen ağrılı bir kitlenin
farkedilmesi üzerine sevk edilmişti. Hastanın öncesinde bilinen bir travma ya
da operasyon öyküsü yoktu. Aktif olarak güreş yapmaktaydı. Ultrasonografisinde
solid ve göreceli olarak iyi sınırlı kitle saptandı. Manyetik rezonans
görüntülemede iyi sınırlı, abdominal transversalis kası ile internal abdominal
oblique kasının fasyasından kaynaklanan kitle saptandı. Kitle genel anestezi
altında total olarak eksize edildi. Kitlenin histopatolojik incelemesinde
desmoid tümör tanısı konuldu. Sonuç olarak lateral abdominal bölgede ağrılı
kitle yakınmasıyla başvuran çocuklarda DT de ayırıcı tanıda dikkate alınması
gereken bir patolojidir. Olgumuzda güreş sırasındaki yineleyen spor travması bu
tümörün gelişiminde bir faktör olabilir diye düşünmekteyiz.
