Abstract | Abstract: Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a fibroblastic mesenchymal neoplasm that rarely metastasizes. SFTs was first described in relation to pleura. However, occurrence of this tumor type has been reported in other sites like peritoneum, liver, adrenal gland, meninges and oral cavity. In head and neck region, oral cavity is the most common site of involvement. Most of the solitary fibrous tumors are benign and present as an asymptomatic slow growing mass. Surgery remains the mainstay of treatment. Hereby, we describe a case of 71-year-old male with malignant solitary fibrous tumor arising from right maxilla invading the right orbit presenting as proptosis. |
