Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare mesenchymal neoplasm most commonly seen in the pleura. Rarely they can occur at extrapleural sites. SFT of the pelvis is rare with very few cases reported in the literature. We report a case of a 35-year-old female who presented with complaints of pain in abdomen for the last 1 year. Computed tomography revealed a large mass lesion in the pelvis measuring 15.9 × 12 × 13.8 cm extending up to the L4-L5 level. Bilateral ovaries were not seen separately. Histopathological examination of the resected specimen revealed an SFT. |
