- Solitary fibrous tumours are rare growths of mesenchymal origin that usually occur in the pleura but can also develop in various other parts of the body, including the orbit.
- A case study involving a 41-year-old man showed a painless mass in the left orbit causing eye displacement, with imaging suggesting possible lacrimal gland or nerve sheath tumours.
- Following complete surgical excision, histopathological results indicated the presence of a solitary fibrous tumour with atypical features; however, no malignant characteristics were found, and the patient remained recurrence-free after 18 months.
