Abstract

Solitary fibrous tumors ofthe pleura (SFTP) are uncommon. They tend to be discovered incidentally or during workup for unexplained cough or paraneoplastic effects. It is important to recognize the entityand perform a surgical excision because of the possibility of subsequent malignant transformation and local compressive effects. We present the case of a SFTP discovered on chest imaging. Our patient had surgical excision with good response. A review of the literature is also presented.

期刊介绍： The Connecticut State Medical Society (CSMS) is a federation of eight component county medical associations, with a total membership exceeding 7,000 physicians. CSMS itself is a constituent state entity of the American Medical Association. Founded by the physician-patriots of the American Revolution, the Society operates from a heritage of democratic principles embodied in its Charter and Bylaws. The base of all authority in CSMS is, of course, the individual physician member. It is the decisions of members in their own county associations that ultimately determine the nature of the Society"s policies and activities.
