Abstract:
Peritoneal desmoplastic small round cell tumor is a very rare and highly aggressive neoplasm that predominantly strikes male children and young adults. It frequently presents as a large abdominal mass with widespread peritoneal involvement at diagnosis. We report one case of desmoplastic small round cell tumors in the pelvis in a old aged woman with a brief review of literature.
