Familial adenomatosis polyposis–related desmoid tumours treated with low-dose chemotherapy: results from an international multi-institutional retrospective analysis

摘要

Desmoid tumour (DT) is a locally aggressive fibroblastic proliferative disease representing the most common extraintestinal manifestation of familial adenomatosis polyposis (FAP). As data on the activity of chemotherapy in these patients are limited, we examined the outcomes of patients treated with low-dose methotrexate (MTX)+vinca alkaloids (vinorelbine or vinblastine).
