From the case:
Retroperitoneal desmoid tumor
{"current_user":null,"step_through_annotations":true,"access":{"can_edit":false,"can_download":true,"can_toggle_annotations":true,"can_feature":false,"can_pin":false},"extraPropsURL":"/studies/86427/annotated_viewer_json?iframe=true\u0026lang=us"}
Large enhancing, T2-hyperintense left retroperitoneal mass encases the lumbosacral plexus and sciatic nerves. Displaces and likely invades portions of the iliopsoas and iliacus muscles.
Case Discussion
Ultrasound guided biopsy confirmed desmoid-type fibromatosis. Most cases of desmoid are intraperitoneal or abdominal wall masses, and an extra/retroperitoneal pelvic mass encasing nerves is a less common presentation.
