Résumé
Solitary fibrous tumours are rare mesenchymal neoplasms with limited malignant potential that can occur anywhere in the body, with a predilection towards body cavities such as the pleura. It has been reported to arise in the peritoneum and the mesentery. This is a case of a female patient who presented with an incidental abdominal mass compressing the duodenum. Differential diagnosis included GIST and intra-operatively was found to be arising from the gallbladder. En-bloc cholecystectomy was done and diagnosed a solitary fibrous tumour. This is the second case of gallbladder solitary fibrous tumour reported in the literature. Awareness of this rare entity is important for diagnosis and treatment.
