Title: Solitary fibrous tumor of the lesser omentum: report of a rare case. Author: Ekıcı Y, Uysal S, Güven G, Moray G. Journal: Turk J Gastroenterol; 2010 Dec; 21(4):464-6. PubMed ID: 21332007. Abstract: We herein describe the case of a 51-year-old male who presented with a mass of the epigastric region. Preoperative contrast enhanced abdominal computerized tomography revealed a solid mass between the left liver lobe and stomach. Histopathologic examination diagnosed the mass as a solitary fibrous tumor. Although solitary fibrous tumors are rare, especially in the abdomen of adults, they are generally benign, but malignant cases have also been reported. Long-term follow-up will be necessary to determine whether the surgery has been curative.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
