Abstract
Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is an uncommon mesenchymal neoplasm that arises primarily from the pleura, but recognized also in other tissues. SFT in the thyroid gland is extremely rare. Here we presented the second reported SFT arising in an intrathoracic goiter. The88-year-old woman was referred with a huge goiter involving upper mediastinum accompanied by airway obstruction and tracheostomy. The patient underwent a left subtotal thyroidectomy, which revealed a SFT. No recurrence was noted during 3 years of follow-up.
