Popis: Introduction Solitary fibrous tumour (SFT), as are benign neoplasms of fibroblastic cells. Nasosinusal localisation is exremely rare, difficult to diagnose and to manage. Case report We report a rare case of Solitary fibrous tumour in the nasal cavity in a 47-year-old- woman, with complete surgical resection. Discussion SFTs are of mesenchymal origin, mainly from serous membranes. The head and neck region is affected with a percentage ranging from 5 to 27%. On the other hand, LTS unusually affects the nasal tract (NTS). Because of this rarity and its variable morphological appearance, it is difficult to distinguish TNS from other mesenchymal lesions. Conclusion Although there are no standard clinical guidelines, the preferred treatment for FLS is radical surgical resection.
Highlights • Solitary fibrous tumour is an uncommon fusion neoplasm of spindled fibroblastic cells set in a branching vasculature with an unclear biologic behavior. • Nasosinusal localisation is exremely rare, difficult to diagnose and to manage. • Complete resecability is the most important prognostic factor in the treatment of SFT. • Advantages of the endoscopic approach include a panoramic and large view without external incision, low postoperative morbidity and a shorter hospital stay.
