Intracranial solitary fibrous tumour A case report and review of the literature
2002
SUMMARY We report a case of intracranial solitary fibrous tumour (SFT) arising on the meninges of a 51 year-old woman who also had a synchronous meningioma, an association not previously reported. SFT of the meninges showed histological findings similar to SFT in other locations and immunohistochemical study showed diffuse positive staining for CD-34 and focal staining for bcl2. In the central nervous system this kind of tumour should be distinguished from meningiomas and haemangiopericytomas. We discuss the differential diagnosis and review the literature published about these neoplasms.
