Fibrous Tumor

Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare mesenchymal neoplasm that can present essentially anywhere in the body. Presentations in the hypopharynx are extremely rare with only two previous cases reported. We report the first case of postcricoid SFT occurring in a 58-year-old male requiring a microsuspension laryngoscopy excision following an unsuccessful transoral robotic attempt. The excision was uneventful, and the patient is currently without recurrence. Current management strategies of the hypopharyngeal SFT, the unique differential diagnosis, and challenges in surgical approaches in the postcricoid region are discussed.

Solitary Fibrous Tumor (SFT) of prostate is an unusual mesenchymal neoplasm. We report SFT in a 62 year-old man which was clinically misdiagnosed as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The specimen of surgically resected two prostate mass, we received were solid grey-white nodular on cut surface. Based on histopathological ndings and IHC assessment, a diagnosis of SFT was made. In addition, we review the literature and discuss the challenging issues of misdiagnosis. The case is presented in view of its rarity.

Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a unique mesenchymal neoplasm that was originally believed to be of submesothelial origin. Eventually, SFT expanded to include what was previously called hemangiopericytoma in other regions of the body that had similar immunohistochemical and morphologic features. Although most are benign, many studies have tried to identify histologic features that predict which tumors will behave in an aggressive manner. Recently, dedifferentiation has been described in rare cases of SFT and does appear to correlate with a more aggressive clinical course. Dedifferentiated SFT occurs in a similar age range and location as conventional SFT and can resemble multiple different malignant entities. Utilization of ancillary studies and thorough tissue sampling is important to reach the correct diagnosis. The morphologic features, immunohistochemistry, molecular alterations, and prognosis will be discussed.

Background: Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT)/hemangiopericytoma (HPC) is a rare tumor which originates from the walls of capillaries and has historically been thought to be able to occur anywhere in the body that blood vessels are found. It is rarely found in the sellar region. Case Description: InS this report, we present the first case of this tumor occurring in the sellar region of a pediatric patient. This 12-year-old male presented with progressive vision loss which prompted surgical resection after a sellar lesion was discovered on imaging. The initial transsphenoidal approach resulted in subtotal resection and the patient experienced reoccurrence within 3 months. He underwent an orbitozygomatic craniotomy to achieve gross total tumor resection. Conclusion: We conducted a literature review of intracranial SFT/HPC in the pediatric population and found it to be an extremely rare occurrence, with <30 cases reported. The incidence of SFT/HPC occurring in the sellar region for any age group was also found to be a rare entity. Treatment recommendations for this tumor are also scarce, based on retrospective chart reviews from the adult population. The role for adjuvant radiation has mixed results.

Objectives. To discuss an unusual presentation of solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) as well as the first description of SFT originating from the renal vein. Case Report. In this article, we report the case of a 56-year-old man who presented with nonspecific epigastric pain and was found on computed tomography to have a large 10-cm renal artery aneurysm with evidence of contained rupture, segmental ischemia of the kidney, and suggestion of renal vein thrombosis. This was treated by a multidisciplinary team of urologists, vascular surgeons, and interventional radiologists with both renal artery coil embolization and radical nephrectomy. The thrombosis was found on pathologic review to be a malignant SFT originating from the renal vein with likely erosion into the renal artery. Conclusion. This report describes the first case of SFT originating from the renal vein and demonstrates the potential for mimicry as a giant renal artery aneurysm.

Hydatidosis is an endemic disease caused by Echinococcus granulosus. Humans are accidental intermediate hosts. In children, it affects the lung in 64% of cases and the liver in 28%. Renal involvement is uncommon (2-4%). We operated 7 years old girl with renal and hepatic hydatidosis laparoscopically. Hydatid cyst should be kept as one of differential diagnosis while managing cystic disease of any organ in the body. To the best of our knowledge this is the first case of renal hydatidosis with hepatic hydatidosis that has been managed laparoscopically. Laparoscopic surgery is safe and efficacious in managing multiorgan hydatid disease in children.

The Brain

We present a unique case of a patient simultaneously diagnosed with solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) and unrelated adenocarcinoma of the lung, both proven with separate pathology. It was subsequently found that the SFT had metastasized to the brain by additional pathology, and not the predicted adenocarcinoma. SFTs are a rare mesenchymal neoplasm that accounts for less than 2% of all reported soft tissue tumors. SFTs most commonly arise in the thoracic cavity, but are frequently found in various locations throughout the body, and rarely metastasize to the brain. This case highlights that rare neoplasms, such as SFT, should not be ruled out as a potential cause of metastasis. Due to the rarity of this clinical situation, we also provide a review and discussion of previously reported SFT cases and the use of postoperative radiation therapy. The optimal treatment for individual patients remains unclear in this unique situation. Surgical resection followed by adjuvant Gamma Knife radiation therapy to the surgical bed appears to be a safe option for local treatment of SFT in select patients. Further studies are needed of this rare clinical situation in order to better understand and optimize future treatments for patients with SFT and metastasis to the brain.

AbstractBACKGROUND AND IMPORTANCE:Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) has been previously reported for its wide variety of presentations and atypical sites. We report a case of recurrent SFT with multiple intracranial and spinal lesions.CLINICAL PRESENTATION:A 45-year-old female with recurrent right frontoparietal SFT was found to have multiple intracranial and spinal lesions. Most of the lesions are asymptomatic. Each of the intracranial and spinal lesions has been confirmed histologically. In 1999 the patient was found to have a single right temporal SFT and had a gross total resection of the lesion. In 2005 the patient underwent a second gross total resection for the recurrence of the right temporal-parietal lesion, followed by radiation therapy. In 2009 she underwent a third and fourth gross total resection of the right frontoparietal lesion, and the L4-5 mass, as well as a cervical laminectomy for an extramedullary spinal lesion causing spinal compression.CONCLUSION:This is the first case report of recurrent SFT with multiple intracranial and spinal lesions. This case illustrates the nature of recurrence and multiplicity of SFT and raises the importance of a thorough investigation, especially in the entire neuroaxis, in patients with the diagnosis of SFT. This case also questions the justification of the name that was given to this tumor.

Background: Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare mesenchymal neoplasm described initially in visceral pleura but can occasionally involve other sites such as the urinary tract. Extrapleural localizations are often indolent but some malignant SFTs have been described. The treatment and the most important prognostic factor for SFT seem to be complete resection of the neoplasm. Case report: We report the 10-year history of a retroperitoneal SFT, which recurred twice after conservative management, and was eventually treated with en bloc resection of the mass, the bladder, and the prostate, and urinary diversion by ileal conduit. To our knowledge, this case has the longest follow-up in the literature. Conclusion: Extrapleural SFTs often have indolent but unpredictable behavior as they can recur even after many years. Some histologic features are associated with the malignancy of these tumors. Complete resection of the neoplasm is the most important prognostic factor. Patients with SFT should be considered for a very long follow-up after the surgery due to the risk of possible late recurrences.

Fibrous Tumor

Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a spindle-shaped cell neoplasm originally described in the pleura, but subsequently found in many anatomic sites. Only few cases of primary SFTs in the bone have been previously described in the literature. We present the case of an 86-year-old man with a 1-week history of pain in his left arm. Imaging studies demonstrated a well-defined osteolytic lesion in the proximal humerus measuring 6.1 cm in diameter. Sections showed a round to spindle-shaped cell neoplasm with prominent mitotic activity (28 mitoses per 10 high-power fields) and areas of necrosis, focally surrounding staghorn-shaped vessels. The tumor cells were positive for CD34, CD99, Bcl-2, and STAT6 and negative for smooth muscle actin, epithelial membrane antigen, and cytokeratin AE1/AE3. These findings were consistent with a malignant SFT involving the left humerus. Although extremely rare, SFT should be considered in the differential diagnosis of primary bone tumors. This is the first case report of a primary SFT in a long bone with malignant histological features.
