Intracranial solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) and hemangiopericytomas (HPCs) are rare, aggressive tumors typically found along the dural sinuses. Despite their aggressive nature, complete surgical resection remains the most significant factor in reducing recurrence and improving survival. Here, we present the case of a 32-year-old male patient who presented with a new-onset headache and vertigo.

Nasal and paranasal sinus masses can arise from a wide range of conditions, both benign and malignant, as well as congenital or acquired. Diagnosing these masses is often challenging, requiring a combination of nasal endoscopy, imaging studies, and histopathological analysis. Initial imaging frequently involves computed tomography or cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) to evaluate the bony anatomy of the nasal cavity and surrounding sinuses, while magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is typically used for detailed assessment of soft tissues and to aid in differential diagnosis when the findings are inconclusive.

Introduction: Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) represents an uncommon mesenchymal neoplasm affecting primarily the extremities and deep soft tissues with, overall, benign but locally aggressive biologic behavior and an underlying pathognomonic NAB2::STAT6 fusion. Intraosseous SFTs are infrequent, and involvement of the jawbones is exceedingly rare.

Case Presentation: A 54-year-old woman presented with an asymptomatic, well-demarcated, multilocular radiolucency of the left posterior mandible featuring focally irregular borders, root resorption and lingual cortex perforation.
