[Hemangiopericytoma of the soft palate and mediastinum: a case report].
We report a case of hemangiopericytoma with simultaneous affectation of soft palate and mediastinum in a 46-year-old male. We describe the outstanding histologic features of this uncommon tumor, as well as its treatment and evolution. This case had a 5-year survival in spite of pulmonary metastases. We also reviewed the literature and discussed this rare clinical presentation of hemangiopericytoma.
