abstract：:Solitary fibrous tumour (SFT) is well-described in the urinary tract, but malignant examples are rare. We studied our experience with high grade malignant SFT of the prostate to address the degree of histological and immunophenotypical overlap with sarcomatoid carcinoma and prostatic stromal sarcoma. Four cases were i...
