Introduction: Solitary fibrous bladder tumors are extremely uncommon, with only a few cases reported. These fibroblastic mesenchymal neoplasms are typically benign, indolent, and slow growing.
Case Presentation: A 44-year-old male patient with obstructive uropathy was referred to our unit for workup. Ultrasonography and MRI of the pelvis showed a large, well-circumscribed bladder mass, also visualized cystoscopically. This mass was excised en bloc using the Pfannenstiel approach. Histopathological and immunohistochemical analyses revealed a solitary fibrous tumor.
Conclusion: The management of SFTs can be challenging due to the lack of established guidelines. Hence, we offered our patient long-term follow-up. Twelve months postoperatively, no recurrence or metastases were found on the follow-up imaging.

Solitary fibrous tumours (SFTs) are rare soft tissue masses that are often clinically silent until they cause mass effect. A paraneoplastic syndrome manifesting as persistent hypoglycaemia, termed Doege-Potter syndrome (DPS), can be associated with these lesions. Surgical treatment is recommended for the management of these tumours.

Solitary fibrous tumors of pleura (SFTP) are rare neoplasms derived from mesenchymal cells of the pleura. A 63-year-old male patient, laborer by profession, presented with progressive dry cough and breathlessness for one month. Clinically he had left-sided intrathoracic mass which was confirmed by CT thorax.

Spindle cell lipoma (SCL) is a benign adipocytic tumor usually found in the subcutis of the posterior neck, upper back, and shoulder, predominantly in middle-aged males. This case report describes an atypical presentation of SCL in a 26-year-old male with a history of malignant melanoma. The patient presented with an erythematous plaque with central hyperpigmentation on the right upper arm, an uncommon location and presentation for SCL.

Juxtaglomerular cell tumor (JxGCT) is a rare type of renal neoplasm demonstrating morphologic overlap with some mesenchymal tumors such as glomus tumor (GT) and solitary fibrous tumor (SFT). Its oncogenic drivers remain elusive, and only a few cases have been analyzed with modern molecular techniques. In prior studies, loss of chromosomes 9 and 11 appeared to be recurrent.
