| Abstrakt: | Solitary fibrous tumor is a mesenchymal neoplasm that first appeared in the literature as a pleural lesion, but over the last decades, it has been reported in many extrathoracic sites. Primary solitary fibrous tumor in the adrenal gland is very uncommon. Its biological behavior is variable but mostly benign. We report here a case of an apparently healthy woman who, in the context of the study of limb paresthesias, was diagnosed with an adrenal incidentaloma. Laboratory tests were performed, and no hormone hyperfunction was detected. Subsequently, a right adrenalectomy was performed, and the pathological study confirmed a solitary fibrous tumor. To the best of our knowledge, this is the 19th case reported in the literature of a primary solitary fibrous tumor originating from the adrenal gland and, notably, the first documented instance in Spain.
