Abstrakt: Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) arising from adult mesenchymal stem cells is an uncommon vascular tumor of pelvic cavity. While initially thought to be confined to the pleura, pericardium, or peritoneum, recent studies have revealed that SFTs can develop in different areas of the body. Typically, SFTs grow slowly and may not present noticeable symptoms. In this 2 case study, we describe the clinical situation of a 46-year-old female patient and 68 years old male patient who complained of persistent pelvic pain and urinary symptoms respectively. Imaging tests revealed solitary fibrous tumor in the pelvic cavity which was confirmed on histopathology, an unusual location for this type of tumor. This case reports focusses on importance of early recognition and treatment in dealing with this rare tumor.
