Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a mesenchymal tumor characterized by ovoid cells, branching blood vessels, stromal hyalinization, and CD34 immunoreactivity. Studies have shown loss of 13q in a group of morphologically similar entities, including cellular angiofibroma, mammary-type myofibroblastoma, and spindle cell lipoma. The histologic and immunophenotypic overlap between SFT and the latter group of tumors suggests that these tumors may be genetically linked. We tested a group of 40 SFTs to assess for loss of RB1 (13q14) by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). All 38 SFTs with evaluable signals failed to show loss of RBI (13q14) by FISH All cases of cellular angiofibroma (1/1), spindle cell lipoma (6/6), and mammary-type myofibroblastoma (4/4), which were used as a control group, showed monoallelic or biallelic loss of RB1. The absence of RB1 loss in SFTs suggests that they are not related to cellular angiofibroma, mammary-type myofibroblastoma, or spindle cell lipoma.
