| Abstract | We describe a case of a 65-year-old woman affected by hemangiopericytoma/solitary fibrous tumor of the right shoulder-subclavian region. Hemangiopericytoma/solitary fibrous tumor is a rare tumor of uncertain malignancy. She reports shoulder pain and inability to abduct the arm and elevate the shoulder. Imaging showed erosion of the scapula. The patient underwent 5 sessions of "on demand" embolization in the previous 2 years scheduled for recurrence of symptoms-swelling of tissues. Further 2 treatments were achieved through embolization via 2 different microballoon catheter combined with percutaneous cryoablation with 5 probes. Images after the treatment demonstrate a marked reduction in the hypervascularized area and an increase in the necrosis area. So, this combined treatment is safety and reproducible also in extrahepatic tissue. |
