Summary
This study looks back at the medical records of 130 people who had surgery for a rare, non-cancerous tumor called elastofibroma dorsi, which grows under the shoulder blade. Researchers want to learn more about the patients' characteristics, how the tumor was found, any complications from surgery, and whether the tumor came back. The goal is to better understand this condition and improve how it is managed.
