Abstract
We present the case of a benign solitary fibrous tumor of the retroperitoneum and describe its radiologic characteristics. MRI was more sensitive than US or CT for determining the retroperitoneal origin, and for orienting tumor histology and reducing the differential diagnosis with other retroperitoneal tumors.
