Solitary fibrous tumours are uncommon pleural tumours that are not related to mesotheliomas. They are typically benign and pedunculated and may grow to massive sizes. Surgical resection is usually curative. Tumour recurrence and metachronous development of multiple tumours are unusual. In this report a patient was treated for 3 benign solitary fibrous tumours of the pleura over 23 years. The authors hypothesize that this represents multifocal tumorigenesis as opposed to local tumour recurrence. The importance of complete surgical excision and lifelong radiographic follow-up are stressed.
孤立性纤维瘤是一种罕见的胸膜肿瘤，与间皮瘤无关。它们通常为良性且有蒂，可能生长到很大的尺寸。手术切除通常可治愈。肿瘤复发和多个肿瘤的异时性发生并不常见。在本报告中，一名患者在23年的时间里接受了3次胸膜良性孤立性纤维瘤的治疗。作者推测，这代表了多灶性肿瘤发生，而非局部肿瘤复发。强调了完整手术切除和终身影像学随访的重要性。
