Abstract
|
|
|
Solitary fibrous tumors(SFTs) are a rare spindle-cell neoplasm originating from mesenchymal fibroblast-like cells. Although they generally arise from submesothelial connective tissue in the pleura, many other locations have also been described, including the mediastinum, upper respiratory tract, orbit, salivary gland, thyroid, and prostate. SFT of the kidney, however, has rarely been described, and only 1 case has been reported in Korea. A 53-year-old female visited our hospital for abdominal pain, and abdominopelvic computed tomography showed a heterogeneous well-enhanced mass in the renal pelvis. She was treated with a laparoscopic radical nephroureterectomy, which revealed an SFT of the kidney.(Korean J Urol 2009;50:89-91)
