Treatment of orbital solitary fibrous tumour with gamma knife radiosurgery and systematic review of literature

Abstract: Solitary fibrous tumours (SFTs) are relatively rare tumours that were originally thought to arise from the pleura but have thereafter been demonstrated as occurring anywhere in the body. These tumours are generally considered benign but have frequently been noted for recurrence and local invasion. Furthermore, their indolence is controversial due to increasing evidence implicating the existence of a spectrum that includes hemangiopericytoma (HPC). Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) has been well characterised in … Show more

“…Extrapleural SFTs are almost always benign and cured by means of simple surgical excision (13). Stereotactic radiosurgery was treatment option in for recurrent solitary fibrous tumour and for patient refused surgery, percutaneous thermal ablation was proposed as a treatment alternative which can prevent surgical scar, reduced recovery time (14). The SFT affecting the patient was located in the buccal space, extended into the infratemporal space (Fig.…”
