Abstract

Solitary fibrous tumor of head and neck region is quite rare especially in nasal cavity and paranasal sinus location. The main treatment modality for this tumor is surgery. To achieve good clinical outcomes, adequate resection is needed. The role of adjuvant radiation, in case of inadequate resection, is still debated. We present a case of a 49-year old male who had solitary fibrous tumor at left maxillary sinus. He underwent total maxillectomy and his pathological reports showed positive margin. He then received post-operative radiation at a dose of 6600 cGy and 6 cycles of chemotherapy consisted of doxorubicin, ifosfamide and mesna. Three year after complete radiation, he remained without evidence of local recurrence and distant metastasis.
