ABSTRACT
Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a relatively uncommon spindle cell mesenchymal neoplasm that is most often based on the pleura but may rarely arise in extrapleural locations, including the skin. Herein, we describe three cases of cutaneous SFTs. SFT is characterized by epithelioid and spindle cells arranged in random patterns with focal prominent stromal collagen and pericytomatous vessels. Immunohistochemical evaluation is required for definitive distinction of SFT from other benign and malignant cutaneous spindle cell neoplasms. Although aggressive biologic behavior is uncommon, accurate diagnosis of it is required for prognostication and counseling. CD34, bcl-2, and CD99 stains are positive in SFT, but not specific. STAT6 is the most sensitive and specific immunohistochemical marker to confirm diagnosis of SFT.
