[Mesenteric fibromatosis in Gardner's syndrome].
The paper reports a case of mesenteric fibromatosis with familial polyposis, an association which was diagnosed as Gardner's syndrome, and highlights the complications connected to mesenterial desmoid tumours. In addition, the importance of radical surgical therapy of these neoplasias is underlined. Lastly, it is hypothesised that full screening of patients affected by familial polyposis might show a greater incidence of association between widespread polyposis and pathological changes attributable to Gardner's syndrome.
