- Abstract: Objective To investigate imaging manifestations of desmoids-type fibromatoses (DF).Methods The CT and MRI features of 17 cases with DF were reviewed retrospectively.Resuits All of 17 cases were solitary lesions,of which 10 cases were abdominal wall shape,5 cases were abdominal wall type and 2 cases were intra-abdominal (mesentery) type.In all the cases,10 times CT and 10 MRI examinations were performed,of which 3 cases underwent CT and MRI examination.In 10 cases with CTexamination,9 cases of plain scan was density,uniform density,1 cases of abdominal DF scan showed slightly higher local density.Enhanced CT scanning was performed in 5 cases,including 4 cases of mild enhancement,and the other 1 case of intra-abdominal DF showed annular enhancement.2 cases of delayed scan showed progressive enhancement.MRI examination was performed in 10 cases,T1WI were equal signals,9 cases of T2WI and SPIR sequences were high signals,and internal signals were not uniform.One case of internal DF showed patchy,short T2 low signal,and SPIR was low signal.6 cases of DF underwent enhanced scan,the lesions showed moderate and markedly inhomogeneous enhancement,with punctate,funicular and patchy enhancement in the interior zone.Conclusion The CT and MRI features of DF have some characteristics,and MRI can reflect the histological features of lesions.
