Clinicopathological findings in a case series of extrathoracic solitary fibrous tumors of soft tissues
BACKGROUND Solitary fibrous tumors (SFT) represent a rare entity of soft tissue tumors. Previously considered being of serosal origin and solely limited to the pleural cavity the tumor has been described in other locations, most particularly the head and neck. Extrathoracic SFT in the soft tissues of the trunk and the extremities are very rare. Nine cases of this rare tumor entity are described...
متن کاملSolitary fibrous tumors of the pleura.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Solitary fibrous tumor of the pleura (SFTP) is a rare neoplasm of the pleura. Although an increasing number of case series have been reported in recent years, so far clinical behavior is still unpredictable. The following article presents a detailed review of the recent larger series of SFTP with particular attention to the clinical presentation, pathologic characteristics and...
متن کاملIntracranial solitary fibrous tumors: imaging findings in 6 consecutive patients.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Intracranial solitary fibrous tumors (ISFTs) are rare mesenchymal neoplasms originating in the meninges. The aim of this study was to describe the CT, MR imaging, and angiographic features of the solitary fibrous tumor and to identify imaging characteristics. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed CT, MR, and angiographic findings in 6 cases of ISFT. We evalu...
متن کاملSolitary fibrous tumor of the intrathoracicgoiter
Solitary Fibrous Tumors (SFTs) are rare primary pleural neoplasms which have recently been reported in extra-thoracic sites. In this report, solitary fibrous tumor arising in an intra-thoracic goiter with no evidence of cervical mass in a 74-year-old obese man who was found to have a large superior mediastinal mass with tracheal deviation on Chest X-Ray is presented.
متن کاملGene Expression Profiling of Solitary Fibrous Tumors
BACKGROUND Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are rare spindle-cell tumors. Their cell-of-origin and molecular basis are poorly known. They raise several clinical problems. Differential diagnosis may be difficult, prognosis is poorly apprehended by histoclinical features, and no effective therapy exists for advanced stages. METHODS We profiled 16 SFT samples using whole-genome DNA microarrays and...
