title: [Desmoid tumors of the abdominal wall (clinical cases)].
abstract: The authors on the basis of three cases of desmoid tumors observed, examine the etiologic factors, clinical aspects and results of medical and surgical therapy. According with the date learnt from the latest literature authors propose a surgical therapy in first instance by a large excision with clear edges. This approach guarantees the most efficacious prophylaxis of recurrence.
