A Giant Solitary Fibrous Tumour Arising From the Right Hemidiaphragm Detected Incidentally During a Routine Health Checkup

A 45-year-old woman presented with right diaphragmatic elevation. Imaging revealed a 13-cm hypervascular mass supplied by the inferior phrenic artery. Preoperative embolisation enabled safe resection. Pathology confirmed a solitary fibrous tumour, highlighting a rare diaphragmatic origin and the utility of embolisation.

Abstract

A 45-year-old woman presented with right diaphragmatic elevation. Imaging revealed a 13-cm hypervascular mass supplied by the inferior phrenic artery. Preoperative embolisation enabled safe resection. Pathology confirmed a solitary fibrous tumour, highlighting a rare diaphragmatic origin and the utility of embolisation.
