Imaging findings
A subtle bump on the radiograph eventually presented as a soft tissue mass on CT that enlarged over time. This was favored to be a pleural mass, which was resected and confirmed as a classic solitary fibrous tumor, staining for CD34. Coronal images clearly demonstrated its broad-based nature and distinction from the liver.
Key takeaways
A classic example of a solitary fibrous tumor, which can be broad-based and enlarge over time. Coronal images can be particularly helpful for distinguishing these lesions from other entities such as liver herniation.
