[Establishment of Preoperative Diagnosis Helpful in Choosing Minimal Surgical Procedure for Resecting Intrapulmonary Solitary Fibrous Tumor;Report of a Case].
Kyobu Geka. the Japanese Journal of Thoracic Surgery 2017 September
Intrapulmonary solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) arising from the parenchyma of the lung is very rare. Few limited surgery have been performed because preoperative and intraoperative diagnosises of SFT are so difficult. We here report a case of intrapulmonary SFT which was able to be resected by segmentectomy by preoperative diagnosis. A 77-year-old man, who was found to have an abnormal nodule in right lower lobe on computed tomography (CT), was admitted to our hospital. Fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (PET) showed a slight uptake in the nodule. By CT guided needle biopsy, the nodule was diagnosed as intrapulmonary SFT pathologically. We could choose segmentectomy as a surgical procedure by preoperative diagnosis.
