Abstract:
We present an 81-year-old woman with remote breast cancer who presented with melena and hemorrhagic shock requiring intensive care hospitalization. Endoscopic evaluation showed a 5-cm pedunculated gastric mass with ulceration and friability. She underwent sleeve gastrectomy for definitive treatment of her bleeding. Pathology was consistent with a solitary fibrous tumor (SFT). There are only a few reported cases of gastric SFTs presenting with gastrointestinal bleeding. If a large brown/tan bleeding mass is identified on upper endoscopy, SFT should be considered.
