Hello and welcome.

I just posted to your other query but wanted to post here now that I've seen your message.

You should check out the
Thoracic Outlet Syndrome Forum
There are many posts there regarding rib resection although the reason for the surgery is different.

Also, if you're looking for older posts try the forum search feature.

If you type in - Rib resection - for example, you can find past threads/posts.
Desmoid doesn't bring up much in the way of older posts btw.
