Abstract

Solitary fibrous tumours (SFTs) represent an infrequent clinical entity distinguished into pleural and extrapleural forms, with morphological resemblance. Literature exists on extrapleural forms of SFTs but few cases originating from small bowel mesentery have been reported. We report here one such case of a 64-year-old male presenting with abdominal pain and mass in the right lower quadrant of abdomen. Radiology suggested a neoplastic etiology arising from the jejunum which was surgically resected. Histopathology confirmed a spindle cell tumour originating from small bowel. Patient had an uneventful clinical course and was discharged after 1 week of surgery. We also reviewed the literature on SFTs arising from mesentery and found that only 24 cases have been reported worldwide in the past 35 years.
