Area of Science:

  • Pulmonology
  • Oncology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are uncommon neoplasms.
  • SFTs are typically found in the pleura, but intrapulmonary locations are rare.

Observation:

  • A case of pulmonary fibroma in a 66-year-old male smoker is presented.
  • The tumor's intrapulmonary location is unusual for this type of neoplasm.

Findings:

  • Histological examination revealed spindle cells on a collagen background.
  • Absence of nuclear atypia can complicate the diagnosis of intrapulmonary SFTs.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the importance of considering SFTs in the differential diagnosis of lung masses.
  • Awareness of unusual presentations is crucial for accurate and timely diagnosis of pulmonary tumors.
