Solitary fibrous tumors are rare mesenchymal neoplasms that can range from slow-growing to aggressive tumors. This report presents a unique case of a young male patient with a solitary fibrous tumor involving the seminal vesicle, a rare location, and reinforces incidental discovery of these tumors on imaging and physical exams. Detection of these tumors is imperative to identify and treat malignancy. In our case, a 39-year-old previously healthy Asian male presents to the emergency department as a trauma admission post bicycle crash and is incidentally found to have a pelvic mass on computed tomography imaging of the pelvis. The patient underwent trans-anal biopsy which showed spindle epithelioid cells positive for CD34 and STAT6 markers, with a morphological and immunohistochemical profile consistent with a solitary fibrous tumor. The patient underwent surgery with a robotic-assisted laparoscopic pelvic mass resection and now follows up annually with imaging for observation.
