A primary spindle cell sarcoma of the sella turcica in a patient without a history of radiation treatment is a very rare occurrence. Only one other case has been reported to date, with local recurrence 7 months after the patient underwent subtotal resection and stereotactic radiosurgery of the tumor. The authors present a case of spindle cell sarcoma of the sella turcica successfully treated by surgery, external-beam radiotherapy, and gamma knife radiosurgery. After 24 months of follow up, the patient continues to show no evidence of disease.
