Abstract

Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) was first described in the pleura by Lietaud in 1767; later in 1870, Wagner described the localized nature of this type of tumor and Klemperer and Rabin classified pleural tumors into two types: diffuse mesotheliomas and localized mesotheliomas. Recent years have seen the redefinition of this neoplasm, due to better technology; it is now proven that this neoplasm may have multiple different extrapleural origins including the head and neck regions. This diversity of locations is related to the particular mesenchymal histogenesis of SFT which allows its development from very unusual sites such as the salivary glands (SGs). In this particular site, this neoplasm is very infrequent and most of reported cases refer to benign disease, with just one case informed so far of primary malignant SFT.

Resumen

El tumor fibroso solitario (TFS) fue primeramente descrito en la pleura por Lietaud en 1767; posteriormente en 1870, Wagner describió la naturaleza localizada de este tipo de tumor y Klemperer y Rabin, en 1931, clasificaron los tumores pleurales en dos tipos: mesoteliomas difusos y mesoteliomas localizados. En los últimos años se ha redefinido esta neoplasia, debido a la mejora de las tecnologías; ahora se ha probado que puede tener múltiples y diferentes orígenes extra-pleurales, incluyendo la región de cabeza y cuello. Esta diversidad de localizaciones se relaciona con la histogénesis mesenquimal particular del TFS, que permite su desarrollo desde localizaciones muy inusuales tales como las glándulas salivares (GS). En esta localización particular este tumor es muy infrecuente, y muchos casos reportados se refieren a una enfermedad benigna, con un único caso informado hasta la fecha de TFS maligno primario.
