Abstract
The paper discusses a case of a desmoid tumor in a post-hysterectomy female patient and describes how imaging modalities such as contrast-enhanced computed tomography and biopsy were used to diagnose the tumor. The case study suggests that for the diagnosis of desmoid tumors, contrast-enhanced computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are superior to conventional modalities. Options for patient therapy were addressed as well in this case.
