Introduction And Importance: Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are rare mesenchymal neoplasms, initially described in the pleura but capable of arising in various anatomical locations, including the central nervous system. Dedifferentiation, characterized by the transformation of a low-grade tumor into a high-grade sarcoma, is an uncommon phenomenon in SFTs, especially in the intracranial region.
Case Presentation: A 31-year-old male visited the neurology outpatient department with complaints of frequent headaches, seizures, speech difficulties, and weakness on the left side of his body.

Inflammatory leiomyosarcoma (ILMS) is a malignant neoplasm showing smooth muscle differentiation, a prominent inflammatory infiltrate, and near-haploidization. These tumors have significant pathologic and genetic overlap with the recently described "inflammatory rhabdomyoblastic tumor (IRT)," suggesting that ILMS and IRT may belong to one entity. Herein, we describe two cases of ILMS/IRT with attention to new cytogenetic and sequencing findings.
