Abstract
- Fibromatosis is a rare benign neoplasm that appears as a sporadic lesion or is found in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis. Fewer than 7 cases of intraabdominal solitary fibromatosis arising from the colon have been reported in the English literature. This small number of reported cases may be not only because of the low incidence of the disease but also because of the difficulty in making proper diagnosis. We present here a case of histologically confirmed intraabdominal solitary fibromatosis arising from the colon, with an emphasis on computed tomography findings.
