Abstract: Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) of the pleura is a rare tumor of an unknown cause and corresponds to 5% of all pleural tumors. It is generally asymptomatic and discovered incidentally through imaging exams. The definitive diagnosis is based on histopathological findings and treatment is surgical. This paper describes the case of a previously healthy female patient with a tumor mass at the base of the left lung.
