Özet

Solitary fibrous tumors of the head and neck are extremely rare, slow-growing, and generally asymptomatic benign neoplasms. To the best of our knowledge, only 153 cases of solitary fibrous tumors in the head and neck have been previously reported in the English literature until 2010. However, none has been in the supraclavicular region. Herein, we report a case of solitary fibrous tumor arising from the supraclavicular region. Characteristics, differential diagnosis, and treatment of the disease were also summarized.
