Discussion

This patient has had 3 surgeries on this knee and carries the diagnosis of fibromatosis. From Radiopaedia: Aggressive fibromatosis is a type of musculoskeletal fibromatoses. While it is a non metastasising fibrous lesion, It is thought to be a true neoplasm that arises from fascial and musculo-aponeurotic coverings, sometimes at the site of a traumatic or post-surgical scar. The term aggressive fibromatosis is occasionally used synonymously with desmoid tumours by some authors. Infantile form and adult form Reference article.
