Solitary fibrous tumor of the kidney: a case report

We present a case of a 27-year-old male patient submitted to computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging for the evaluation of a renal tumor. The radiological features of the mass suggested the diagnosis of a malignant renal tumor of parenchymatous origin. However, the histological findings proved to be a benign solitary fibrous tumor within the pelvis and caliceal portion of the right kidney.
