Résumé
We report a 68-year-old man who presented with a well-circumscribed 6.9 × 6.5 × 3.6-cm tumor with a feeding vessel from the thyrocervical trunk in his left pleural cavity. The tumor was attached to the distal aortic arch, so he underwent a tumor resection with prosthetic graft replacement of the distal aortic arch. Pathological examination revealed a solitary fibrous tumor with potentially malignant features. To our knowledge, this is the first case of a solitary fibrous tumor arising from the aortic adventitia reported in the literature.
