Solitary Pleural Fibroma: A Case Report and Review of Literature.

Solitary fibrous tumors ofthe pleura (SFTP) are uncommon. They tend to be discovered incidentally or during workup for unexplained cough or paraneoplastic effects. It is important to recognize the entityand perform a surgical excision because of the possibility of subsequent malignant transformation and local compressive effects. We present the case of a SFTP discovered on chest imaging. Our patient had surgical excision with good response. A review of the literature is also presented.
