Abstract
Malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) of the breast is extremely rare and most of the previous reports were focused on the clinicopathological features of breast MFH, so analysis of its imaging findings have been limited. We report a case of MFH involving left breast and left axilla, metastasized from known MFH of left forearm, with focusing on imaging findings based on radiologic evaluation of the breast including mammography, ultrasound and breast MRI.
