Rapid progression of a pregnancy-associated intra-abdominal desmoid tumor in the post-partum period: A case report.

Introduction: The clinical behavior of desmoid tumors can be unpredictable, particularly when they arise in the ante-partum or post-partum period. We present a case of an intra-abdominal desmoid tumor that was identified in the ante-partum period, progressed rapidly in the post-partum period, and was subsequently resected.

Presentation Of Case: The patient is a 19 year-old female who was found to have a 12cm intra-abdominal mass on a fetal assessment ultrasound.
