Background:
A solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare tumor of mesenchymal origin, accounting for less than 2% of all soft tissue tumors. Our study evaluates the early and long-term outcomes of patients operated for solitary fibrous tumors in the light of the literature.
Material and Method:
Twenty-one patients who were operated on for SFT between January 2011 and December 2021 were evaluated retrospectively. Demographic characteristics, morbidity, mortality, and survival results of the patients were evaluated in the study.
Results:
Of the patients in the study, 16 (76.2%) were benign, and 5 (23.8%) were malignant. Eighteen patients (85.7%) had pleural solitary fibrous tumors, while 3 patients (14.3%) had extrapleural solitary fibrous tumors. In benign patients, there were 7 patients (43.8%) with a tumor diameter of 10 cm or more; There were 3 patients (60%) in the malignant group (p=0.635). The mean follow-up period of the patients was 58.7 months; The mean survival time of patients with PFT is 102 months (95% CI: 85-120). The two-year survival rate was 100%, and the 5-year survival rate was 79%. While the 2-year survival rate was 100% in Group 1 patients, the 5-year survival was 90%; In group 2, these rates are 53.3% and 53.3%, respectively. In patients with a 10 cm or less tumor diameter, 5-year survival was 85.7%, while it was 72.9% under 10 cm (p=0.494).
Conclusion: Complete surgical treatment in benign solitary fibrous tumors prevents the recurrence of the disease. However, follow-up of patients in malignant fibrous tumors is crucial.
