Solitary fibrous tumour (SFT) is a relatively rare neoplasm, accounting for only 5% of all pleural tumors1. SFTs are ubiquitous and can involve any organ. Intra pulmonary localization is extremely rare. Some authors suggest the probability of originating from mesenchymal cells of the sub mesothelial tissue of the pleura2. They are usually benign but may degenerate. Their diagnosis is pathologic after complete surgical resection. Long-term follow-up is essential.
