Background. Solitary fibrous tumors are ubiquitous mesenchymal neoplasms of putative fibroblastic origin. They were originally described in the pleura but subsequently have been reported in many extraserosal sites. Solitary fibrous tumors may also occur in the meninges, central nervous system parenchyma, and spinal cord. Case. A 67-year-old male patient with progressive lower extremity weakness...

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...

Primary peritoneal tumors share a common anatomical site and therefore their clinical manifestations are very similar. When masses detected, the tentative initial diagnosis is secondary to metastatic disease, which has been determined most frequently in cavity. However, primary should always be included differential diagnosis. Among malignant neoplasms, mesothelial have identified (malignant me...

Hypoglycemia has multiple causes, but the most common is a complication of insulin treatment. In addition to therapy, tumors such as insulinomas pancreatic origin and extrapancreatic causing paraneoplastic syndromes should also be considered. Solitary fibrous pleura (SFTP) rare tumor, which when associated with hypoglycemia causes Doege-Potter syndrome. This article reports case 69-year-old man...

BACKGROUND Solitary fibrous tumour of the uterine cervix is an extremely rare phenomenon. We present a case of the largest cervical tumour of this type in this anatomical location reported so far. CASE PRESENTATION A 45-year old white female presented with abdominal pain, abnormal uterine bleedings and a 15 cm mass of the uterine cervix/left parametrium. Histological examination with immunohi...

Most pleural neoplasms are metastatic in origin. Primary tumours of the pleura are rare and categorized as diffuse or localized. Diffuse or malignant mesothelioma is more common, related to asbestos exposure, and associated with a poor prognosis. Localized or solitary fibrous tumour (SFT), of the pleura is a less common neoplasm of controversial histogenesis and is unrelated to asbestos exposur...

Introduction: Thyroid gland fibrosarcomas are extremely rare tumors, and only very few cases have been described in the literature. There are no set recommendations along with follow-ups regarding the treatment of these tumors. Moreover, the prognosis is poor with a very short life expectancy.   Case Report: We present an 81-year-old patient who was suffering from increa...
