A case of malignant solitary fibrous tumor of the prostatic urethra

Abstract: A 68-year-old male with dementia presented with gross hematuria. On plain CT, a mass was found at the base of the prostate with intravesical protrusion. On MRI, the mass was well-circumscribed and showed slight hyperintensity compared to the skeletal muscle on T 1 weighted imaging and high intensity on T 2 weighted imaging. On dynamic study, the tumor showed mild enhancement in the early phase and increased enhancement in the delayed phase… Show more

“…2 SFT of the prostate is extremely rare with fewer than 25 cases reported in the literature to date. [3][4][5] Due to the rarity of prostatic SFT, the variation of clinical and morphological appearances of SFT, and the large number of different soft tissue tumour types, prostatic SFT remain difficult to diagnose. 6 The majority of case reports of prostatic SFTs have short-term follow-up and have been reported in men between the ages of 50 and 70.…”
