Abstract:
A 60 year old female came with complaints of colicky, intermittent pain in the abdomen since 4 days, which was acute in onset, and present only on passing stools. Ultrasonography revealed mild enterocolitis, and a right adnexal mass lesion, most likely an exophytic uterine fibroid. She was operated in our hospital. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemistry revealed the lesion to be a solitary fibrous tumour, a rare neoplasm discovered at an extra-pleural location. Less than 100 cases of extrapleural solitary fibrous tumour have been reported till date. We discuss the clinico-histopathological findings of solitary fibrous tumour.
