Mesenteric desmoid tumor after robot-assisted laparoscopic cystectomy with bladder replacement: a case report.
Journal of Surgical Case Reports 2022 Februrary
Desmoid tumors are a very rare disease associated with familial adenomatous polyposis, surgical trauma and hormonal factors. Surgical trauma is a critical trigger for sporadic desmoid tumors. Tumor development has been reported, and laparoscopic surgery has become more widely performed than the conventional open surgery. However, a few cases of desmoid tumors have developed after robot-assisted surgery. When desmoid tumors develop after cancer surgery, they are often difficult to distinguish from cancer recurrence. This differentiation is important for patients with bladder cancer because it helps determine the treatment plan. However, very few cases of mesenteric desmoid tumors after cystectomy for bladder cancer have been reported. Herein, we present a case of desmoid tumor that developed following robot-assisted laparoscopic cystectomy for bladder cancer. The tumor was resected via minilaparotomy with laparoscopic assistance for diagnostic treatment.
