- Abstract:
- Solitary fibrous tumors (SFT) are rare spindle cell neoplasms. To date only very few cases of pelvic SFT have been reported in the literature. SFT are characterized by unique microscopic and immunohistochemical findings. Complete local resection is the treatment of choice. Recurrence and metastasis may be related to infrequent malignant histological features, but histology is not always a reliable predictor for prognosis. Therefore long-term follow-up is necessary.We report about a male patient with a malignant pelvic SFT. After complete resection the tumor recurred after a short period of 6 months posterior to the original location in the pelvis. The differential diagnoses and the therapy options are discussed with a review of the present literature.
