    Author: Feijó ED, Nery ACS, Caiado FR, Limongi RM.
    Journal: Arq Bras Oftalmol; 2017 Jun; 80(3):189-191. PubMed ID: 28832740.
    Abstract:
    Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare mesenchymal spindle-cell neoplasm commonly found in the pleura; it is rare in the orbit and extremely rare in the lacrimal gland. We herein report a case of SFT of the lacrimal gland that mimicked a pleo morphic adenoma. We discuss the clinical, radiological, histopathological, and immunohistochemical findings that provided insight and rationale to accurately diagnose this case.
