| Discussion | Desmoid-type fibromatosis in the head and neck Benign fibroblastic tumor in the musculoaponeurotic system of the deep tissue. Although it is histopathologically benign and never metastasizes, the tumor is notorious for its infiltrative growth and local recurrence. MRI: T2WI: often high SI T1WI: iso SI T1WI C+: avid enhancement However, the MR signal intensity may be variable according to the degree of cellularity, myxoid change, and collagenization. Low signal intensity on T2-weighted image correlating with less cellularity and myxoid change with higher collagenization Reference) Rhim Jung hyo, Kim Ji-hoon, et al.
