Tumorile desmoide, cancerele „atipice” care pot dispărea singure. Care sunt simptomele

September is dedicated to raising awareness about desmoid tumors, a rare condition with an incidence of 3-5 cases per million people annually. These tumors, often misclassified as malignant, can significantly affect quality of life and require a unique diagnostic and treatment approach. Oncologist Silvia Brotea-Moșoiu discussed their characteristics, detection, and treatment options, emphasizing the importance of a multidisciplinary team for accurate diagnosis. Treatment may involve a 'watch and wait' strategy rather than immediate surgery, and recent advancements include innovative medications like nirogacestat. Patients are encouraged to seek medical advice for any concerning lesions.
