A 64 year old man was admitted to hospital due to dyspnoea and stridor. A peduncular polyp of the carina was found at bronchoscopy. Histological examination of the tumour after resection with endoscopic electronsurgery revealed malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) of myxoid type. With endoscopic neodymiumyttrium aluminium garnet (Nd-YAG) laser surgery, residual tumour was eliminated. To our kno...

BACKGROUND Splenic tumors are rare. Malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) of the spleen is one of the least common primary splenic tumors. Review of the literature shows that a laparoscopic resection has never been tried. METHOD We discuss the case of a 76-year-old man with a 7-cm MFH in the spleen and present a review of splenic sarcomas. RESULTS The patient underwent a successful laparosco...

Primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) of the liver is a very rare tumor. We present a patient with surgically confirmed primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the liver. A 72-year-old man was admitted owing to abdominal fullness and right upper quadrant (RUQ) pain for 1 month. Both computed tomography (CT) and ultrasonography showed a huge tumor located at the right lobe of the liver ...

Malignant Fibrous Histiocytoma (MFH) rarely affects the abdomen and only a few cases arising in the mesentery have to date been discovered. In this paper, two cases of MFH of the mesentery are described and a review of the literature is reported.

Malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) is a rare tumor of the heart and the patients with these tumors usually have a poor prognosis. We report a case of MFH with an origin from the left superior pulmonary vein, involving the left atrium and protruding through the mitral valve, which needed urgent surgery. Complete resection was performed but local recurrence was detected one month later.

Primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) of the central nervous system (CNS) is uncommon. We report cases of two young patients of MFH arising from the cranial meninges and involving the adjacent skull and scalp. There was infiltration of the brain in one case. Both the lesions were excised and primary scalp repair was performed.

malignant fibrous histiocytoma (mfh) is the most common soft-tissue sarcoma which predominantly surfaces in the retro-peritoneum and extremity. mfh of lung is a very rare condition. the diagnosis is essentially through histologic examination. however, the invasion of the chest wall or other organs might help establish the malignant nature.we report a case of a 77-year-old man who had been prese...

Here we report a 38 year old male who was evaluated for splenomegaly and diagnosed to have malignant fibrous histiocytoma of spleen, which was confirmed histopathologically. Very few cases of MFH have been reported.
