Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced CT Findings of a Extrapleural Solitary Fibrous Tumor in the Spleen: A Case Report and Literature Review

ABSTRACT

Extrapleural solitary fibrous tumor, formerly referred to as “hemangiopericytoma” is a rare soft tissue vascular tumor which has elevated malignancy potential arising from the capillary pericytes. Extrapleural solitary fibrous tumors, originating from the spleen, are extremely rare. We report on a rare case of a patient presenting with splenic extrapleural solitary fibrous tumors with intratumoral irregular calcification detected by dynamic contrast-enhanced computed tomography.
