A Case of Solitary Fibrous Pleura Tumor Associated with Severe Hypoglycemia: Doege-Potter Syndrome
Solitary fibrous tumor of the pleura (SFTP) is a rare primary intrathoracic tumor that arises from mesenchymal tissue underlying the mesothelial layer of the pleura. It usually has an indolent clinical course. The hypoglycemia that accompanies SFTP was first described by Doege and Potter independently in 1930, hence the eponym Doege-Potter syndrome (DPS). The incidence of DPS is reported to be ...
متن کاملCase Report: A rare case of malignant solitary fibrous tumour of pleura with Doege-Potter syndrome
Solitary fibrous tumour of pleura (SFTP) is a rare tumor contributing to less than 5% of all pleural tumours and about 10% 30% of these tumours show features of malignancy. Occurrence of hypoglycaemia with solitary fibrous tumour is an unusual paraneoplastic syndrome designated as Doege-Potter syndrome which can occur both in benign and malignant tumours.

متن کاملSolitary fibrous tumour of the pleura presenting with refractory non-insulin mediated hypoglycaemia (the Doege-Potter syndrome).
We report a case of a 61 year-old man who presented with refractory non-insulin mediated hypoglycaemia. A chest radiograph showed a right lung opacity, which was confirmed as a large intra-thoracic mass by computed tomography (CT) of the thorax. CT-guided biopsy with histological examination revealed features of a solitary fibrous tumour of low malignant potential. We discuss the association of...
متن کاملGiant solitary fibrous tumor of pleura
A 60-year-old male presented with dyspnea and chest pain. He was referred with massive bulky mass. A mass in the left lung was observed using chest X-ray (Figures 1). A computed tomography scan of the chest showed a mass on the left lung with complete lung collapse Figures 2 (A, B). The needle biopsy was performed and the case was diagnosed with solitary fibro...
متن کاملMetastatic extrapleural malignant solitary fibrous tumor presenting with hypoglycemia (Doege–Potter syndrome)
We report a rare case of metastatic malignant solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) that presented with hypoglycemia because of insulin growth factor-2 production. Initial workup included computed tomography imaging that revealed a large, partially necrotic liver mass, a hypervascular pancreatic head lesion, and 2 renal lesions. Following hepatic resection, pancreatic head resection and nephrectomy, all...
