Abstract

Mesenteric fibromatosis is a monoclonal, fibroblastic proliferation arising from musculoaponeurotic structure, and it is distinctive lesions defined as a group of non-metastasizing fibroblastic tumors which has local invasion and has a high recurrence rate after the surgical excision. The main treatment modality is the surgical excision. Radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and hormone therapy are also known as useful treatments. We report our experience of a recent case of Mesenteric fibromatosis. A 62-year old female patient had undergone gastrectomy due to gastric cancer. 18 months after gastrectomy, we detected an abdominal mass. The preoperative radiologic findings were suggestive of recurrence. Exploratory laparotomy was performed and post-operative pathologic diagnosis was confirmed as fibromatosis. We report a patient with mesenteric fibromatosis that mimic recurrence after gastrectomy for gastric cancer.
