Objective: Intracranial hemangiopericytomas (HPC) are rare tumors. Radiotherapy (RT) is frequently performed after surgery, depending on tumor size, location, and the type of resection. Moreover, RT is preferred as an effective treatment for local recurrence and metastasis.

Background: Hemangiopericytoma (HPC) is a rare secondary tumor after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), which has not been reported in the literature. Herein, we reported a case of HPC after allo-HSCT.
Case Description: We reported a case of a middle-aged female patient with primary plasma cell leukemia who presented lumbosacral pain and right lower limb pain and numbness on1684 days post-transplant.

Evaluating masses of mesenchymal and epithelial origin accurately using computed tomography (CT) has several limitations in dogs. This study aimed to present dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) parameters to aid in improving the diagnostic accuracy for masses of mesenchymal and epithelial origin in veterinary medicine. Four dogs diagnosed with benign and malignant soft tissue sarcoma (STS), cholesteatoma, or squamous cell carcinoma underwent CT, conventional MRI, and DCE-MRI.

Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are a rare type of soft tissue tumor first identified as arising from pleura and usually arising in the thoracic cavity. The incidence of SFTs arising in the head and neck region is much lower, accounting for about 7% of SFT cases. Involvement of the larynx specifically is exceedingly rare and can have inconspicuous presentations, making them challenging to diagnose.

Spinal cord solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs), previously known as hemangiopericytoma (HPC), represent exceedingly rare neoplasms. Strategies for their management, such as appropriate follow-up duration, remain controversial due to their propensity for recurrence despite extended periods of quiescence. We report a 51-year-old male presenting with new-onset back pain and gait disturbances, who had undergone gross total resection (GTR) of an SFT within the thoracic spinal cord 19 years ago.

Aim: Myopericytoma (MPC) is a rare tumour characterized by a perivascular proliferation of pericytic cells with myoid differentiation and a typical spindle shape. Except for the rare malignant cases, MPC mostly shows a benign course. Symptoms are often non-specific, and the diagnosis could be accidental.

Background And Objectives: The role of radiosurgery in the treatment of benign intracranial tumors is well established. However, there are limited long-term follow-up studies on outcomes after stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for benign intradural spinal tumors. In this article, we report a large single-institution experience in using SRS to treat patients with benign intradural tumors of the spine.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to analyze the clinical outcomes and malignant progression of tumors in patients who underwent reoperation for recurrent solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) and hemangiopericytomas (HPCs).
Methods: We identified 48 patients who underwent reoperation because of tumor recurrence at Tangdu Hospital between January 2010 and December 2021 and analyzed the clinical outcomes, namely, the rate of gross total resection (GTR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), malignant progression of tumors and radiotherapy. The survival curves for each group were plotted using the Kaplan‒Meier method and compared using log-rank tests.
Solitary fibrous tumour (SFT), a unique spindle-cell neoplasm, was first identified in the pleura and was earlier named as haemangiopericytoma. The origin of SFT is not well established; however, it has recently been described as a mesenchymal neoplasm, probably arising from the ubiquitous dendritic interstitial cells. SFTs are predominantly benign tumours with a low risk of malignant transformation and are commonly seen in the intrathoracic region, seldom involving extrapleural locations.

Hemangiopericytomas (HPCs) are rare vascular tumors originating from pericytes, with a predilection for the musculoskeletal system and occasional occurrence in the head and neck region. HPCs arising in the external auditory canal (EAC) are exceptionally rare, making their diagnosis and management a clinical challenge. A 71-year-old male presented with a six-month history of a painless, progressively enlarging mass in his right EAC, accompanied by tinnitus and hearing loss.

Myofibromatosis is a proliferative disorder characterized by the development of soft tissue neoplasms referred to as myofibromas that predominantly occur in infants and young children. These lesions have been described using varied terminologies since they were first reported in 1951. However, these neoplasms are histopathologically characterized by benign fibroblast and myofibroblast proliferation containing a biphasic presentation of spindle-shaped cells surrounding a central zone of less differentiated cells arranged in a hemangiopericytoma-like pattern in all cases.

Background: Although the imaging findings of intracranial solitary fibrous tumor (SFT)/hemangiopericytoma (HPC) and meningioma are similar, their treatment and prognosis are quite different. Accurate preoperative identification of these two types of tumors is crucial for individualized treatment.
Objective: The aim of this study was to develop a radiomics model for the differentiation of intracranial SFT/HPC and meningioma based on multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI).

Background: Meningeal solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are rare mesenchymal neoplasms that are associated with local recurrence and hematogenous metastasis. The cell states and spatial transcriptomic architecture underlying the unique clinical behavior of meningeal SFTs are unknown.
Methods: Single-cell (n=4), spatial (n=8), and bulk RNA sequencing (n=22) was used to define the cell states and spatial transcriptomic architecture of meningeal SFTs across histological grades and in patient-matched pairs of primary/recurrent or intracranial/metastatic samples.
