title: Desmoid-type fibromatosis in childhood: report of 3 cases with review of the literature.
abstract: During the last 20 years we observed 3 cases with the rare condition of desmoid fibromatosis in childhood. This benign tumor with infiltrating potential has therapeutic difficulties for the achievement of a stable local tumor control (LTC). In this paper we present our experience with the therapeutic manipulations applied to our patients and go through the relevant literature on desmoids tumors.
