Desmoid tumors are rare, locally aggressive tumors that can occur anywhere in the body, but most commonly occur in the abdomen. Intra-abdominal desmoid tumors can cause a variety of symptoms, including abdominal pain, bloating, constipation, and weight loss. If left untreated, intra-abdominal desmoid tumors can grow to be very large and can even become life-threatening.

The compartment surgery for resection of intra-abdominal desmoid tumors is a minimally invasive surgical technique that has been shown to be effective in removing these tumors while preserving the surrounding healthy tissue. This technique involves making small incisions in the abdomen and using a laparoscope or robotic camera to visualize the tumor. The surgeon then carefully dissects the tumor from the surrounding tissue and removes it in one piece.

The compartment surgery for resection of intra-abdominal desmoid tumors is a major surgery, but it is generally well-tolerated by patients. The recovery time is typically 2-3 weeks, and most patients are able to return to their normal activities within 6-8 weeks.
