Definition / Description of Disease

Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a mesenchymal spindle cell neoplasm that can develop at any site in the body, including soft tissue, visceral organs, bone, etc. It was first described by Klemperer and Rabin^[1] in 1992 as a tumor of the pleura. However, since then this entity has been increasingly described from extrapleural sites. A morphologic clue to the diagnosis is the distinctive branching “staghorn” vessels. SFT is characterized by NAB2::STAT6 fusion resulting from a small paracentric inversion at chromosome 12q13.

Synonyms / Terminology

Formerly SFTs were categorized as hemangiopericytomas.

Epidemiology / Prevalence

SFT occurs most commonly in adults with no gender predilection. Incidence of the tumor is highest in the age group of 40-70 years.

Clinical Features

Signs and Symptoms	SFTs present as slow-growing, painless neoplasms. Clinical symptoms can be due to mass effect in the site of involvement. e.g. Abdomen/Pelvis: abdominal distention, constipation, urinary retention Head/Neck: Dysphonia, nasal obstruction, dysphagia
Laboratory Findings

Sites of Involvement

SFTs may occur at any site of the body. Involvement of head and neck, deep soft tissues, abdominal cavity, retroperitoneum, pelvis, bone, and visceral organs have been reported.

Morphologic Features

Morphologically, biopsy or resection specimens will show a bland spindle cell proliferation arranged haphazardly in a background of collagenous stroma. Cells contain ovoid nuclei within eosinophilic cytoplasm with indistinct cell borders. Tumors can vary in cellularity and stromal collagen. On low power, branching, “staghorn” shaped vessels can often be appreciated. Mitotic counts are usually low. Myxoid and lipomatous change have been described. SFT with adipocytic component are referred to as fat-forming (lipomatous) SFTs. There is also a variant known as giant cell rich SFT, which has the classic patternless spindle cell proliferation admixed with multinucleated giant cells. Dedifferentiated SFTs will show conventional SFT transitioning to a high-grade pleomorphic variant. Heterologous elements may be present. Standard immunophenotypic expression of CD34 and STAT6 is often lost in the dedifferentiated component.

Gene Mutations (SNV / INDEL)

There are multiple genes with single nucleotide variations that have been reported only in metastatic solitary fibrous tumor tissues including TP53 and APAF1.^[9]

APAF1	Other	66.7%	No	Yes^[9]	No	Alteration of APAF1 results in gain of a stop codon. The gene is inactivated by DNA methylation of the promoter region. Decreased APAF1 is considered to lead to inhibition of apoptosis. This alteration and decreased APAF1 mRNA expression was observed in metastatic SFT.

Epigenomic Alterations

NAB2::STAT6; Activating mutation	EGR Pathway	Increased activation of EGR1

Genetic Diagnostic Testing Methods

Ancillary studies such as immunohistochemistry and molecular tests are useful in differentiating soft tissue tumors. SFTs have historically been diagnosed by morphology and strong diffuse CD34 positivity. Additional immunohistochemical phenotype previously used for identification included expression of Bcl2, CD99, and vimentin and absence of expression of epithelial, muscle, and neural markers. However, the introduction of STAT6 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 6) immunostain now dominates due to its high sensitivity and specificity. STAT6 expression is demonstrated by nuclear staining. Next generation sequencing (NGS) using mRNA is also highly useful in detecting the NAB2::STAT6 fusion. Breakapart fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) probe for STAT6 can detect rearrangement of this gene. In the context of SFT, the rearrangement of the STAT6 gene is highly suggestive for the presence of NAB2-STAT6 fusion. A dual color dual fusion probe targeting both genes would be a direct confirmation for NAB2-STAT6 fusion.

+SFTs may occur at any site of the body. Involvement of head and neck, deep soft tissues, abdominal cavity, retroperitoneum, pelvis, bone, and visceral organs have been reported.
 ==Morphologic Features==
-Put your text here <span style="color:#0070C0">(''Instructions: Brief description of typically approximately one paragraph'') </span>
+Morphologically, biopsy or resection specimens will show a bland spindle cell proliferation arranged haphazardly in a background of collagenous stroma. Cells contain ovoid nuclei within eosinophilic cytoplasm with indistinct cell borders. Tumors can vary in cellularity and stromal collagen. On low power, branching, “staghorn” shaped vessels can often be appreciated. Mitotic counts are usually low. Myxoid and lipomatous change have been described. SFT with adipocytic component are referred to as fat-forming (lipomatous) SFTs. There is also a variant known as giant cell rich SFT, which has the classic patternless spindle cell proliferation admixed with multinucleated giant cells. Dedifferentiated SFTs will show conventional SFT transitioning to a high-grade pleomorphic variant. Heterologous elements may be present. Standard immunophenotypic expression of CD34 and STAT6 is often lost in the dedifferentiated component.

 ==Genetic Diagnostic Testing Methods==
-Put your text here
+Ancillary studies such as immunohistochemistry and molecular tests are useful in differentiating soft tissue tumors. SFTs have historically been diagnosed by morphology and strong diffuse CD34 positivity. Additional immunohistochemical phenotype previously used for identification included expression of Bcl2, CD99, and vimentin and absence of expression of epithelial, muscle, and neural markers. However, the introduction of STAT6 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 6) immunostain now dominates due to its high sensitivity and specificity. STAT6 expression is demonstrated by nuclear staining. Next generation sequencing (NGS) using mRNA is also highly useful in detecting the NAB2::STAT6 fusion. Breakapart fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) probe for STAT6 can detect rearrangement of this gene.  In the context of SFT, the rearrangement of the ''STAT6'' gene is highly suggestive for the presence of ''NAB2-STAT6'' fusion. [https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27802414/ A dual color dual fusion probe targeting both genes would be a direct confirmation for ''NAB2-STAT6'' fusion.]
