Abstract:
The solitary fibrous tumor was a rare spindle cell tumor of adults that typically arised in the pleura, but also has been described in extrapleural sites.Recently, solitary fibrous tumors of the orbital soft tissue have been described. We confirmed a case of solitary fibrous tumor of lacrimal gland by histological and immunohistochemical examination in a 20-year-old female patient with left lateral upper eyelid mass.We report this case with literature review.
