Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare mesenchymal tumor known for its propensity for recurrence and metastasis. Furthermore, aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) is a benign osteolytic lesion. ABC-like areas can be seen in bone tumors that have undergone hemorrhagic cystic change. They are formed by disruptions in the osseous circulation caused by the associated lesion. The most common associated lesions are giant cell tumor, chondroblastoma, osteoblastoma, osteosarcoma, chondromyxoid fibroma, and fibrous dysplasia. There has been no reported case of SFT being the associated lesion.
