AimTo assess the CT features of benign localized fibrous tumour of the pleura, with histopathological correlations.Materials and methodsCT and histopathological findings of 18 patients with surgically resected benign localized fibrous tumour of the pleura were retrospectively assessed.ResultsTumours were pleura or fissure based, semilunar, lentiform or oval in shape, classified according to their homogeneous, slightly heterogeneous or heterogeneous enhancement pattern. Of the 18 tumours, 5 (28%) demonstrated ≥55 HU increment or higher attenuation than muscles on contrast-enhanced CT, and histopathologically showed a haemangiopericytoma-like pattern with rich vascularity.ConclusionCT analysis of the shape of a mass and the enhancement pattern can be helpful in the diagnosis of benign localized fibrous tumour of the pleura.
