Solitary Fibrous Tumor of the Male Breast: A Case Report with Imaging Findings

Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is an uncommon neoplasm of mesenchymal origin, and it most often occurs in the pleura. Mammary gland involvement is extremely rare in this disease. Herein, we report a case of SFT that presented as a slowly growing large mass in the breast of a 64-year-old man. On ultrasonographic examination, the mass was oval and circumscribed with heterogeneous echogenicity and increased intralesional blood flow. Moreover, the mass showed hard elasticity as revealed by shear-wave elastography (SWE), which has not been reported in English literature so far. We also briefly review the literature on the radiologic findings. Because of the nonspecific imaging findings and difficulty in its differentiation from other soft tissue tumors, complete excision with detailed immunohistochemistry is essential.
