Desmoid tumor is a benign tumor which originates from musculoaponeurotic system, can reach greater sizes with local invasion among facial plans, and cause severe deformities, morbidity and even mortality by compression of adjacent structures. These tumors are rarely seen in the head and neck region. The treatment of advanced desmoid tumors of head and neck region is surgery and radiotherapy. In this paper, we present -to the best of our knowledge- the greatest desmoid tumor case of the head and neck region in the literature.

Desmoid tümör muskuloaponevrotik sistemden köken alan, fasiyal planlar arasında lokal yayılarak büyük boyutlara ulaşabilen, çevre yapılara bası yaparak ciddi deformitelere, morbiditeye ve hatta mortaliteye neden olabilen iyi huylu bir tümördür. Bu tümörler baş ve boyun bölgesinde nadir görülür. İlerlemiş baş ve boyun bölgesi desmoid tümörlerin tedavisi cerrahi ve radyoterapidir. Bu yazıda, bildiğimiz kadarıyla literatürdeki en büyük baş ve boyun bölgesi desmoid tümör olgusu sunuldu
