Core Tip
Core Tip: The clinical manifestations of orbital solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) are diverse and not specific. In most cases, the lesions occur outside the muscular cone, are localized at the superomedial quadrant and inferomedial quadrant of the orbit. The mean computed tomography values of lesions are variable, and the signal of lesions on magnetic resonance imaging is uncertain. Contrast-enhanced imaging showed that most part of the lesions was significantly enhanced, whereas there were patchy slightly enhanced areas in them. Delineating SFT from histologic mimics requires nuclear staining for STAT6 as a diagnostic adjunct in conjunction with CD34 positivity. Ki-67 labelling index may be extremely low, and malignant forms with an enhanced propensity for local recurrence have been reported.
