Objective To comprehend the concept， pathology， molecular mechanisms， diagnosis， and treatmentof aggressive fibromatosis （AF）， and to find a novel way to cure aggressive fibromatosis. Method The literatures about the definition， molecular mechanisms， and clinical research of AF were reviewed and analized. Results AF is rare and benign fibromatous lesion that is the result of abnormal proliferation of myofibroblasts. The pathologic features of AF isa benign disease， but it has “malignant” biological behavior. The tumor often involved the surrounding organs and bloodvessels， and caused death of patients. For patients with clinical symptoms or complications， complete excision of thetumor is the treatment of choice. Even if the operation to ensure the negative margin also has a higher recurrence rate， soits treatment requires multidisciplinary treatment. Conclusions The mechanism of AF is very complex， and it’s mecha-nism is still unclear. Clinical management of patients with AF is difficult and controversial， at present， the most effective treatment for AF is operation resection. The effects of adjuvant radiotherapy， chemotherapy， and other treatment after operation for AF still need further study.
