Solitary fibrous tumor of the pleura (SFTP) is a mesenchymal tumor that tends to involve the pleura, and is also described in other thoracic and extrathoracic sites. SFTP usually presents as a peripheral mass abutting the pleural surface, to which it is attached by a broad base or by a pedicle that allows it to be mobile. SFTPs exist in benign and malignant forms. A precise pre-operative diagnosis can be arrived at with a cutting-needle biopsy, although most cases are diagnosed with postoperative histology and immunohistochemical analysis. In this pictorial essay, we review a large series of cases, with emphasis on the radiographic appearance of these lesions and their findings from computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasonography and positron emission tomography.
胸膜孤立性纤维瘤(SFTP)是一种间叶性肿瘤,倾向于累及胸膜,也可见于其他胸部和胸外部位。SFTP通常表现为紧贴胸膜表面的周围型肿块,通过宽基底或蒂与胸膜相连,使其具有可移动性。SFTP有良性和恶性两种形式。虽然大多数病例是通过术后组织学和免疫组化分析确诊的,但通过切割针活检可作出精确的术前诊断。在这篇影像专题文章中,我们回顾了大量病例,重点介绍这些病变的影像学表现以及计算机断层扫描、磁共振成像、超声检查和正电子发射断层扫描的结果。
