Neuromuscular Choristoma-Associated Desmoid-Type Fibromatosis of the Brachial Plexus: Additional Evidence to Support a Nerve-Driven Mechanism
We have recently described circumferential nerve involvement of neuromuscular choristoma associated with desmoid-type fibromatosis (NMC-DTF) in cases involving the sciatic nerve, supporting a nerve-derived mechanism for the DTF. We wondered whether a similar growth pattern occurs in cases involving the brachial plexus (BP).
