Solitary fibrous tumor of the central nervous system invading and penetrating the skull: A case report

ABSTRACT: Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) of the central nervous system is a rare spindle cell tumor of mesenchymal origin. The present study reports the case of a 44-year-old male patient with SFT. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated that the majority of the intracranial tumors exhibited uneven low signals on T1-weighted imaging (T1WI) and low mixed signals on T2WI, and there was an enhancement on enhanced scanning. Furthermore, the distal part of the left occipital lobe exhibited hypersignals on T1WI and T2WI, and this was significantly enhanced following enhanced scanning. The lower part of the scalp exhibited low signals on T1WI and high signals on T2WI, and there was no notable enhancement following enhanced scanning. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy demonstrated an elevated choline/creatine pe
