Talk about the manifestations of fibroids

In daily life, fibroids are very common. When this disease occurs, we must pay attention to it and go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time. This disease is caused by many factors, and these patients want to know what symptoms of fibroids are. So, let us introduce a brief introduction to the manifestations of fibroids?

Clinical manifestations are divided into the following categories according to the age of onset and the affected parts:

1. Juvenile fibromatosis occurs in children and young people.

2. Cervical fibromatosis refers to a type of fibromatosis that manifests at birth or shortly after birth and involves the lower 1/3 of the sternocleidomastoid muscle, sometimes bilaterally. Cervical fibromatosis is often accompanied by various congenital abnormalities.

3. Infant and young children's digital fibromatosis is a type of fibromatosis that usually occurs only in childhood. It typically occurs on the outer side of the finger (toe) tip, but can also occur in other parts of the body, such as the mouth and breast. This disease is often multiple and usually occurs at birth or within 2 years of age.

4. Infantile myofibromatosis is a solitary or multiple nodular lesion that occurs in the skin, soft tissue or bone. It can be confined to the above-mentioned parts or accompanied by the involvement of internal organs. The disease mostly occurs before the age of 2, and about 60% is congenital. The disease can also be seen in adults, with solitary cases more common in males and multiple cases more common in females. Familial cases are known, and evidence of autosomal dominant inheritance has been found.

5. Lipofibromatosis is a subtype of infantile fibromatosis, and local recurrence is common.

6. Multiple hyaline fibromatosis is a morphologically specific, familial multiple fibromatosis affecting children. It has no symptoms at birth and may be caused by congenital metabolic abnormalities.

7. Other cases include penile fibromatosis, palmar fibromatosis, plantar fibromatosis, scar fibromatosis and post-irradiation fibromatosis. Fibromatosis associated with multiple colon polyposis and occasionally multiple osteomas is called Gardner syndrome.

treat

Treatment should be prompt and thorough surgical resection, including a wide area around the affected tissue, and sometimes the entire affected muscle needs to be removed. Only in very rare cases, amputation is forced due to its local invasiveness. Radiotherapy may be effective for local control of the disease and can be used after conservative surgery. Endocrine therapy has also been successful in some cases, such as taking tamoxifen. Young patients and large tumors have a higher recurrence rate.
