Abstract:
Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare mesenchymal tumor with an indolent course but variable metastatic potential. Less than 50 cases of neck SFTs have been documented since 1991. We present a case report of rare presentations of SFT of nape of neck typifying the hypercellular variant of SFT (hemangiopericytoma) with challenges in treatment. Patient underwent excision and was subjected to adjuvant radiation. We concluded that SFT though a rare diagnosis should be considered while dealing with soft tissue tumors and multi-disciplinary pre-operative planning is must to avoid complications and recurrence. Surgical excision remains treatment of choice, but long follow-up is must.
摘要:
孤立性纤维性肿瘤(SFT)是一种罕见的间充质肿瘤,病程缓慢,但转移潜力可变。自1991年以来,记录的颈部SFT病例不到50例。我们提出了一例罕见的颈项SFT表现,代表了SFT(血管外皮细胞瘤)的高细胞变异,在治疗方面面临挑战。患者接受切除并接受辅助放射。我们得出的结论是,尽管在处理软组织肿瘤时应考虑SFT的罕见诊断,并且必须进行多学科的术前计划,以避免并发症和复发。手术切除仍然是首选治疗方法,但长期跟进是必须的。
