Abstract: (450 Views)

Background and importance: Cervical laminectomy and fixation (PCF) is a surgery used in the treatment of symptomatic patients who are resistant to medical therapy, though it can have serious complications affecting patient outcomes.
Case Presentation: This case report describes a rare occurrence of a solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) at the site of a previous cervical laminectomy in a 45-year-old female patient. Following non-surgical treatment for paresthesia and weakness in the upper limbs due to cervical stenosis, the patient underwent cervical laminectomy from C3-6 without instrumentation.
Conclusion: One year after surgery, the patient presented with severe pain and swelling at the surgical site, and radiological evaluation revealed a large mass in the para-vertebral muscular layer. The mass was removed, and microscopic evaluation revealed a typical SFT. The patient underwent an extension of laminectomy and fusion with lateral mass screw, and follow-up at six months showed no recurrence of the tumor.
