Unique Presentation and Management Approach of Pleural Solitary Fibrous Tumor

Abstract EN

Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) of the pleura is an uncommon tumor that is often discovered incidentally on a routine chest X-ray.

We report a case of a young female with a large, sessile, hypervascularized SFT of the pleura presenting with cardiopulmonary shock to a rural hospital with limited therapeutic interventions.

We propose, in this case report, a unique multidisciplinary approach for the management of such a critical patient and the safe resection of the tumor.
