Abstract

Desmoid tumours are benign tumours that do not metastasize but can be locally aggressive, significantly impacting quality of life. Their management requires a multidisciplinary and personalised approach, ranging from active surveillance to invasive treatments, with some drug-based therapies employing recently approved medications. Image-guided techniques are key in both diagnosis and treatment, and individualised strategies are essential due to a lack of consensus on optimal treatment. This article reviews the main imaging findings for desmoid tumours that have been treated over the past 15 years in two different hospitals. It also addresses the different treatment options and the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in managing this condition.

Resumen

El tumor desmoide es un tumor benigno que no metastatiza pero puede ser agresivo localmente, afectando seriamente la calidad de vida. Su manejo requiere un enfoque multidisciplinario y personalizado, desde vigilancia hasta tratamientos invasivos, pasando por el tratamiento médico con nuevos fármacos. Las técnicas de imagen guiadas son clave en el diagnóstico y tratamiento, recalcando la necesidad de estrategias individualizadas debido a la falta de un consenso sobre el tratamiento óptimo. Este artículo tiene como objetivo revisar los principales hallazgos de imagen del tumor desmoide, apoyándonos en diferentes casos tratados en los últimos 15 años en 2 hospitales diferentes, abordando las diferentes opciones de tratamiento y la importancia de un enfoque multidisciplinar para manejar esta condición.
