Abstract

The solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a mesenchymal neoplasm that is described as spindle-shaped tumor cells on a collagenous background originating from pleural tissues. Recently, extrapleural SFT has been reported in nearly all sites, including the sublingual gland, parotid gland, nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. Complete surgical excision is primary treatment for SFT, but diagnosing SFT is not often made until immunohistochemical evaluation after surgical resection. We report that the patient, 45-year-old male, was considered as a case of inflammation polyp arising from left nasal cavity with initial biopsy, however, it has turned out to be SFT after surgical treatment.
