Orbital Solitary Fibrous Tumor: Report of a Three Cases Series

Vilardell F, Huerva V, Abo A, Sanchez MC and Matias-Guiu X

In the current report we present three cases of solitary fibrous tumors of the orbital area that we have seen in a relatively short lapse of time. Most periocular tumors formerly identified as soft tissue hemangiopericytomas, are currently recognized as solitary fibrous tumors, and probably hemangiopericytomas, solitary fibrous tumors, giant cell angiofibromas and fibrous histiocytomas are actually the same tumour, despite some morphologic and immuno labeling variations.
