Massive solitary fibrous intrathoracic tumor presented as primary lung cancer.

Solitary fibrous tumours (SFT) are rare soft tissue tumours with a primarily benign course. Complete surgical resection is the mainstay treatment. In this case report, a 75-year-old man had a massive intrathoracic SFT which was subsequently surgically resected without complications. Although the clinical presentation and CT features of these tumours can mimic lung cancer, the clinical course is significantly more favourable. Diagnostic examination and surgical treatment of intrathoracic SFT should be considered even in patients with increased post-operative risk.
