Abstract

Solitary fibrous tumor is a rare mesenchymal malignancy that may be found in many locations other than the pleura. The majority of these tumors have benign features, but some have malignant potential. We report a histologically proven case of a solitary fibrous tumor in a 52-year-old woman that was incidentally detected by chest radiography during a routine health check. Left posterolateral thoracotomy was performed and then the mass was completely removed. His postoperative recovery was uneventful.

Abstract

Soliter fibröz tümör, nadir bir mezenkimal tümördür ve plevradan başka birçok lokalizasyonda bulunabilir. Bu tümörlerin büyük kısmı bening özelliklere sahiptir fakat bazılarında malign potansiyel olabilir. Biz, 52 yaşında bayan hastada, rutin sağlık kontrolleri sırasında akciğer grafisi ile tesbit edilen ve histolojik olarak ispatlanan soliter fibröz tümör olgusunu sunuyoruz. Sol lateral torakotomi yapıldıktan sonra kitle total olarak çıkarıldı. Postoperatif dönem sorunsuzdu
