A giant orbital solitary fibrous tumor treated by surgical excision: a case report and literature review
Diagnostic pathology(2023)
摘要
Background Spindle cell tumors, called solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs), are of mesenchymal origin, and can develop in the orbit. As ‘intermediate malignancy’ tumors, only a small percentage show malignant behavior, such as invasion of surrounding tissue. Case presentation A 57-year-old woman presented with a 19-year history of a giant right orbital mass. Orbital computed tomography (CT) revealed an inhomogeneously-enhancing mass compressing and engulfing the eyeball and optic nerve. She underwent lid-sparing orbital exenteration. Microscopic characteristics and immunohistochemistry (IHC) tests were indicative of a benign SFT. No recurrence was observed at the 4-year follow-up. Conclusion Early and complete tumor resection is recommended.
