Management of Desmoid Tumors

The management of desmoid tumors (DT) is shifting toward conservative and patient-tailored strategies. Active surveillance is currently considered the first line of treatment for most DT patients, according to international guidelines. When active treatment is required, several systemic and local treatments are considered. The choice of the first-line systemic therapy and the management of recurrence still represent a therapeutic challenge, for which well-defined and shared guidelines are lacking. Such issues represent the next challenge for The Desmoid Tumor Working Group.
