Abstract
GARRIDO ABAD, P. et al. Solitary malignant fibrous inguinal tumor: Case report. Arch. Esp. Urol. [online]. 2007, vol.60, n.10, pp.1200-1203. ISSN 0004-0614.
Objective: Solitary fibrous tumours (SFTs) are rare neoplasias that were first reported in pleura, but can occur in different sites. Inguinal location is extremely rare. Methods/Results: We report one case of a 74 year old man with a right inguinoscrotal mass with 50 years of evolution. After surgical extirpation, solitary fibrous tumour was diagno-sed. Conclusions: The vast majority of solitary fibrous tu-mours (SFTs) have a benign course. Only a few cases have aggressive behaviour, with local recurrence and metastasis. Treatment is surgical, but we must do a long-term follow up in all cases.
