Abstract:
Huge primary epidural solitary fibrous tumors in the sacrum are a rare clinical entity. The purpose of this article is to present our experience in treating such large and complex neoplasms in a 31-year-old woman. The patient complained of constant nocturnal bilateral hip and lower back pain and unilateral radicular symptoms (numbness, paresthesias) in the left S1/S2 dermatomal distribution. Diagnostic imaging, biopsy, preoperative endovascular embolization, two-staged tumor resection, and lumbosacroiliac fusion were performed. The treatment resolved the patient's neurological symptoms and resulted in overall good postoperative functionality. The patient has been in remission for more than five years despite her refusal of adjuvant radiotherapy.
