CONTEXT Solitary fibrous tumor is an uncommon spindle cell tumor which can occur in a variety of locations. Four cases of pancreatic solitary fibrous tumor have been reported in the literature. CASE REPORT We report the fifth case of pancreatic solitary fibrous tumor in a 78-year-old woman who presented with back pain and weight loss. Imaging studies were suggestive of an endocrine tumor. End...

BACKGROUND To report six cases of CD34+ fibroblastic mesenchymal tumours, which are uncommon neoplasms in the orbit. CASE PRESENTATION Six patients presenting with proptosis and palpable mass who were later diagnosed with fibrous solitary tumours, fibrous histocytoma or haemangiopericytoma in the orbit were included. All patients received radiologic examinations and surgical excision for hist...

Background: Intracranial solitary fibrous tumor was rare. However, most intracranial solitary fibrous tumors are benign, cerebral solitary fibrous tumor with malignant transformation was even more unusual. Case present: Herein, we presented a 55 year-old-male who was diagnosed intracranial solitary fibrous tumor five years ago. Partial tumor excision was performed via the pterional craniotomy. ...

Solitary fibrous tumour (SFT), a rare mesenchymal neoplasm usually arising from the pleura, may also occur in many other extra pleural sites. It has exceptionally been described in the pancreas. This report describes the case of a benign SFT of the pancreas occurring in a 41-year-old man who presented with a solid epigastric mass. Pathological and immunohistochemical findings are presented. Ima...

Hemangiopericytoma/solitary fibrous tumor is a very rare tumor of uncertain malignant potential. About 300 such cases have been reported since 1942, when Stout and Murray described these tumors as "vascular tumors arising from Zimmerman's pericytes". Under the World Health Organization (WHO) classification, hemangiopericytomas and solitary fibrous tumors of the soft tissues are regarded as feat...

We present a case of aneurysmal bone cyst involving the roof of the orbit and sphenoid bone, with plain film, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging findings. The natural history and treatment depend on the presence of associated abnormalities such as fibrous dysplasia or a giant cell tumour. In this case the lesion was solitary and was successfully removed, so that possible compli...

Sinonasal glomangiopericytoma is defined as a low-grade malignant tumor demonstrating perivascular myoid phenotype. We report case of sinonasal having diffuse architecture with bland spindle cells arranged in short fascicles, storiform, whorled, reticular pattern, separated by vascular plexus ranging from capillaries to large patulous spaces. Immunohistochemistry required differentiate it other...

Solitary fibrous tumors are neoplasms of mesenchymal origin that may occur virtually in any body part, most commonly arising from the pleura. Solitary fibrous tumor of the kidney is exceptionally rare, and limited clinical knowledge regarding its behavior makes prognosis of the neoplasm difficult. We report a case of solitary fibrous tumor of the left kidney and describe its clinical, imaging, ...
