Abstract
Solitary fibrous tumors and hemangiopericytomas (SFT/HPC) are an uncommon cause of pancreatic mass, and given its rarity data is limited. In this report, we present the case of a 61-year-old Female with history of SFT/HPC brain tumor, which was evaluated with abdominal imaging after presenting with an epigastric abdominal pain. A pancreatic mass was found and after endoscopic ultrasound- fine needle aspiration biopsy, she was found with extracranial metastatic disease. Our case adds clinical awareness and knowledge to this rare entity that needs to be considered when a pancreatic mass is found.
