Abstract
Desmoid tumours or fibromatoses are rare, benign fibroblast tumours of the soft tissues, characterised by invasive infiltration and a very high rate of local recurrence, but without metastatic potential. Pleural localisation is extremely rare. The diagnosis of certainty is histological. Imaging is not very specific. We describe the case of a patient with a pleural desmoid tumour.
