A case of solitary fibrous tumor of the pleura

We report a case of solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) of the pleura with special reference to stamp and scratch cytology. A 49-year-old man showed a shadow on chest X-ray film. The cytologic appearance was variable, showing dimorphic tumor cells, monolayered cell clusters, isolated cells, collagen bands,...

Zusammenfassung:We report a case of solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) of the pleura with special reference to stamp and scratch cytology. A 49-year-old man showed a shadow on chest X-ray film. The cytologic appearance was variable, showing dimorphic tumor cells, monolayered cell clusters, isolated cells, collagen bands, and inflammatory cells such as foamy histiocytes and lymphocytes. Tumor cells are reactive for both CD-34 & vimentin, and negative for cytokeratins.
