Abstract: 

Solitary fibrous tumours are rare mesenchymal growths typically found in the pleura, although they can also originate from the mesentery, albeit rarely. Here, we present a case of a 38-year-old individual who presented with a mass in the left hypochondrium since 12 months. The patient occasionally experienced abdominal discomfort and pain. Upon physical examination, an well-defined hard mass was identified, leading to USG and computed tomograph investigations, which revealed a fibrous tumour. In September 2022 patient underwent surgery. Subsequent biopsy results identified the mass as a solitary fibrous tumour originating from the mesentery of the small intestine. Following surgery, the patient underwent regular monitoring without experiencing any symptoms. However, a recurrence of the solitary fibrous tumour was detected in June 2023 based on CT imaging.
