title: [Desmoid tumor of the thoracic wall].
abstract: Desmoid tumor are rare connective tissue tumors currently considered as sarcoma of low grade malignancy. They are most often encountered in young women of child-bearing years. Abdominal localisation is the most frequent site. The main aim of treatment is to avoid recurrences. We report a case of desmoid tumor developing in the thoracic cage in a patient who had been operated on six years earlier for an epidermoid carcinoma of bronchus.
