Abstract EN

A solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) arising in the paratesticular region is a rare event.

Typically most SFTs present as a lung mass and have a characteristic microscopic appearance.

Although uncommon, SFTs may present at just about any anatomical site.

Here we present a case of a SFT arising along the right spermatic cord, with histologic features mimicking a cellular angiofibroma.

We describe the diagnostic immunohistochemical markers useful for arriving at its diagnosis.

We also summarize our current understanding of the structural and molecular features that make up SFTs and discuss how these features may help us better understand the pathophysiology of pluripotent mesenchymal stem cell differentiation.
