摘要Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs),which are mostly found in the pleura,have been increasingly described in almost every anatomical location of the body.However,reports of these tumors in the pancreas are still rare.We present a case of SFT in the pancreas and review the clinical characteristics of these l0 cases.A 49-year-old woman presented with a 1-month history of mild pain in the upper abdomen,especially after meals.The patient complained of increasingly greater abdominal distension and a loss of appetite.No jaundice or other symptoms of obstruction were found.A soft fixed mass was palpable in the right upper quadrant without pain.The patient had never suffered from hypoglycemia and the fasting blood-glucagon was within normal levels.Serum laboratory results and tumor markers (AFP,CEA,CA19-9 and CA125) were also within normal limits.A contrast-enhanced CT scan revealed a 13 cm× 10 cm× 10 cm different-density soft-tissue mass in the right upper quadrant,in close relation to the head of the pancreas,with a partially hypo-dense region in the cystic area.
