[Solitary fibrous tumor of the nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses and anterior fossa].
Solitary fibrous is rare mesenchymal neoplasm that usually arises in the pleura or less commonly is related to other serosal surfaces. There were reported SFTs in some extrapleural locations. There locations cause diagnostic difficulties. Ethmoid sinuses, nasal cavity and anterior fossa are rare site for SFTs. Authors report a case of SFT of the nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses and anterior fossa in 33 year-old woman to show the difficulty and importance of recognition. Diagnostic procedures and medical treatment are presented. This report pays attention that SFT should be taken into consideration during diagnostic process of spindle-cell lesions of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses in order to avoid some confusions.
