Background: Malignant solitary fibrous tumor (MSFT) arising from the spinal cord is extremely rare and poorly understood mesenchymal neoplasms: only a few MSFT in the spinal canal has been described. We describe the clinical course of the patient with MSFT arising from the thoracic spinal cord. Case report: We describe the clinical course of the patient and the radiological and pathological findings of the tumor. The tumor had been resected by microscopic posterior approach and video-assisted thoracic surgery, but local recurrence was observed by MRI at 1-year follow-up period. No metastatic lesion was confirmed. Then, carbon ion radiotherapy (CIRT) was administered to the recurrent lesion. Local suppression has been observed for 40 months after irradiation. Conclusion: Dumbbell-shaped MSFT arising from thoracic spinal cord is a highly unusual presentation. CIRT might be effective for treatment of recurrent tumors. |
