Abstract EN
Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is an uncommon neoplasm that usually arises from the pleura.
To our knowledge, only 30 cases of SFTs in the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses have been reported in the literature.
We describe an SFT that arose from the right sphenoid sinus and extended to the nasal cavity and epipharynx.
The tumor was completely removed by endoscopic sinus surgery without complication.
The patient is taking an uneventful course without any evidence of recurrence of the disease 8 months after surgery now.
