    Author: Profyris C, Soilleux E, Corkill R, Birch J.
    Journal: J Plast Reconstr Aesthet Surg; 2010 Jan; 63(1):e13-5. PubMed ID: 19527945.
    Abstract:
    Solitary fibrous tumour is an uncommon neoplasm that arises predominantly from within the pleura. Extrapleural manifestation of solitary fibrous tumour, particularly in the head and neck area, is extremely rare. Here, we report a solitary fibrous tumour of the face in a 40-year old woman. The tumour was removed with a radiological combined approach, with embolisation of tumour blood vessels prior to excision. Eight months following surgery, the patient is well and free of disease.
