Abstract
Desmoid tumor is characterized by benign fibrous growth and develops from the connective tissue of skeletal muscle, fascia and aponeurosis. It commonly occurs in the exterior abdominal wall and the abdominal cavity with the abdominal wall. Cervical desmoid tumor is rare.
A 60-year-old male presented with a large, elastic hard, fixed and non-tender mass in the right neck. MRI revealed a large mass of about 2×3 cm in the right neck, and a biopsy was performed. The pathological diagnosis was extra-abdominal desmoid tumor, so a complete resection was performed.
We describe the clinical course of this case with a review of the literature.
