This article, published in the Journal of Neurological Surgery, discusses a rare case of a solitary fibrous tumor in the nasal cavity. Solitary fibrous tumors are uncommon neoplasms that can arise in various parts of the body, including the head and neck region. Although these tumors are slow-growing, they can potentially spread and invade nearby structures, leading to life-threatening complications. The article highlights the importance of early identification and surgical resection in managing these tumors. The case presented in the article describes the successful removal of the tumor through endoscopic surgical resection after embolization. The article emphasizes the need for prompt diagnosis and treatment due to the potential risks associated with these tumors. [Extracted from the article]
