Solitary Fibrous Tumour Of The Mesentery
Abstract
Introduction: A solitary fibrous tumour is a rare neoplasm which is characterized by the proliferation of fusiform cells with mesenchymal origin.
Case report: We report a case of a fibrous tumour of the mesentery in a 61-year-old male who was sent to a General Surgery appointment due to left lower abdominal pain and palpation of a mass. Computed tomography demonstrated a well-defined solid mass of 6×5,5 cm located in the left iliac fossae, which was completely resected during surgery. We diagnosed this case as a solitary fibrous tumour of the mesentery, which is unusual.
Discussion: Since surgery, there has been no evidence of recurrence. A follow-up at 12 months after surgery found no indications of recurrence.
