Clinical analysis of 12 cases of solitary fibrous tumors in nasal cavity,sinuses and skull base
Objective:To summarize and analyze the clinical manifestations,diagnosis and management and prognostic features of solitary fibrous tumor(SFT)in nasal cavity,sinus and skull base.Methods:The clinical da-ta of 12 patients with STF from nasal cavity,sinus and cranial base admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from April 2014 to January 2022 were retrospectively analyzed,including 4 patients admitted to the de-partment of Otolaryngology head and neck surgery and 8 patients admitted to the department of skull base surgery The clinical characteristics,diagnosis,management and prognosis were analyzed.Results:Twelve patients were included in this research,including 7 males and 5 females.All patients received surgical treatment,and 4 patients also received postoperative adjuvant chemoradiotherapy.After follow-up for 12-60 months,4 patients with adju-vant radiotherapy and chemotherapy had a good prognosis,and among 8 patients who did not receive radiotherapy and chemotherapy,6 patients had good prognosis and 2 patients showed relapse.Four patients with a history of recurrence of SFT after surgery were admitted to our hospital for surgical treatment,in which 1 patient had re-lapse after surgery,and none had metastasis.Nasal cavity and sinus to skull base SFT is rare.The most effective treatment for this disease is surgical resection,and postoperative adjuvant chemoradiation and long-term follow-up can achieve a better prognosis.En bloc resection is the key to treatment success.
