Atypical/malignant solitary fibrous tumor of the pancreas with spleen vein invasion: Case report and literature review

Conclusion: The clinical symptoms of atypical/malignant SFT of the pancreas with spleen vein invasion are not atypical, and imaging feature is lack of specificity. Preoperative diagnosis is difficult, and there is a potential for malignancy. However, due to the paucity of randomized control trials, there is no established, globally accepted treatment strategy, radiation therapy and chemotherapy regimens have not demonstrated global effectiveness, and no standardized treatments have been identified. Therefore, we recommend complete surgical resection and close clinical follow-up.
