Desmoid tumors are a type of fibromatosis and related to sarcoma, though without the ability to spread throughout the body (metastasize). The tumors arise from cells called fibroblasts , which are found throughout the body and provide structural support, protection to the vital organs, and play a critical role in wound healing.
