    The abdominal wall's desmoid-type fibromatosis (desmoid tumor) is a rare, locally aggressive mesenchymal tumor with no potential for distant metastases. It can occasionally grow to a considerable size, leading to diagnostic confusion and presenting as a challenging surgical problem. This is a case of a giant desmoid tumor of the abdominal wall, which manifested as a panniculus morbidus (apron belly), thus causing an adult-acquired buried penis and reduced quality of life.

    Transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block is a regional anesthesia technique where the local anesthetic is injected into the interfascial plane between the internal oblique and transversus abdominis muscle. This block is mainly used for treatment of acute pain following abdominal surgery. Persistent postsurgical pain (PPSP) or chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) is pain that persists at least three months after surgery, which was not present before surgery, or which had different characteristics or increased intensity from preoperative pain. It is localized near the surgical site or a referred area, and other possible causes for the pain had been excluded (cancer recurrence or infection). This pain can lead to functional limitation and psychological trauma in patients. By presenting our case report we would like to describe the effect of TAP block on CPSP in a female patient who had previously undergone many abdominal surgeries.

    Glomus tumors are painful neoplasms arising from the glomus body (responsible for body temperature and blood pressure regulation) in the skin. Although mostly present in the interdigital areas, glomus tumors can arise elsewhere. The vast majority of them are benign. Rarely, malignant variants are reported and are associated with the potential for local infiltration and metastatic dissemination. The abdominal wall location of glomus tumors is extremely rare regardless of whether they present as benign or malignant. We present a case of a 58-year-old female patient with a low-grade malignancy infiltrative glomus tumor of the abdominal wall.
