INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) involving the nasal cavity are extremely rare with few cases reported in the literature.
CASE PRESENTATION: We present a case of SFT in a 90 year-old male complaining of a slow-growing mass prolapsing through left nostril. Nasal endoscopy and imaging exams revealed a mass occupying the entire left nasal cavity, pushing the nasal septum to the opposite side and extending up to the nasopharynx. Biopsy specimen examination reported sarcoma. The patient underwent complete surgical resection of the mass through left para-latero-nasal approach. Immuno-histochemical analyses confirmed the diagnosis of SFT. The patient has remained free of tumor 2 years after surgery.
CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Clinical and imaging features of SFTs of nasal cavity are not specific. A broad of differential diagnosis is associated with histopathologic features of SFTs. Therefore, immuno-histochemical analyses are crucial to confirm the diagnosis. Complete resection of the mass with clear margins is mandatory to minimize local recurrence.
CONCLUSION: SFTs of nasal cavity are very rare neoplasms which continue to pose challenges to practitioner. Pathological examination and mainly immunohistochemical studies are important to establish the diagnosis. Complete resection of the tumor is the key for good outcome.
