This was a retrospective single-center study to analyze and describe the clinical and histological features of all cases of oral solitary fibrous tumor (SFT). Study design: the study included all consecutive cases of oral SFT diagnosed between 2008-2018 at a single tertiary center. Clinical data was retrieved from medical charts. The diagnosis of oral SFT was based upon the morphologic features of the lesions, in routine hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stained sections and confirmed by immunohistochemical analyses including CD34, CD99, Bcl2, and stains for STAT6. Seven cases of oral SFT were found. Of these, three (42%) were in males and four (58%) in females. The age range was 24-63 years (mean 47 ± 13). Four (58%) lesions were located in the buccal mucosa, two (28%) in the labial mucosa and one (14%) on the floor of the mouth. The diameter ranged between 3-50 mm (mean 22 ± 14 mm). All patients were treated with local excision. Follow-up periods were between 2-74 months (mean 41 ± 27). No recurrences were reported. We present a series of oral SFT, which were all non-aggressive in presentation and did not recur after conservative surgery (local excision) over a relatively long follow-up period.

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.

Background: Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare mesenchymal lesion that has a wide anatomic distribution. However, this lesion rarely occurs in the oral or maxillofacial region.
Methods: A retrospective review was performed to evaluate the clinical symptoms, radiological images, pathology and immunohistochemistry results of 9 patients with SFTs treated between January 2015 to April 2024 in our institute.

A 41-year-old woman presented with a facial asymmetry in the mental region and a painful, well-circumscribed, tender mass in the right lower buccal vestibule, associated with extensive ill-defined bone rarefaction with subtle cortical bone resorption. Microscopically, a proliferation of bland spindle cells interspersed with collagen fibers and prominent staghorn-like blood vessels was observed. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed strong positivity for CD34, Bcl-2, CD99, and STAT-6, confirming the diagnosis of Solitary Fibrous Tumor (SFT).

The solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is usually described as a lesion arising from the pleura. Rarely, it has been described in the parapharyngeal space (PS). This study aims to report two cases of SFT in the PS and to perform a literature review on this topic.

Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare fibroblastic tumor with spindle cell morphology, which is characterized by a prominent branching vasculature and a NAB2-STAT6 gene rearrangement. SFT may occur in any anatomical site and may involve salivary glands, including the parotid gland. We present a young female with a primary parotid SFT diagnosed as "neoplasm-Salivary gland neoplasm of uncertain malignant potential (SUMP)" per the Milan system for reporting salivary gland cytopathology by fine-needle aspiration (FNA) with surgical pathology follow-up.
