  • Primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the lung is extremely rare, A 12-year-old child was admitted to the hospital due to an incidentally detected lung mass. A $2.5{\times}2.5 cm$ sized mass located in the right lower lobe was seen on the chest X-ray, the chest computed tomogram and the positron emission tomogram. We resected the mass through a right lateral thoracotomy and the mass was revealed to be a malignant spindle cell neoplasm on the frozen section diagnosis. So, we performed lobectomy of the right lower lobe with systemic dissection of the mediastinal lymph nodes; the final histopathological diagnosis of the mass was malignant fibrous histiocytoma. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 7 and adjuvant chemotherapy was not applied.

  • A 25-year-old female patient was adimitted due to discomfort in the right chest and left epigastric area. Chest X-ray and chest CT showed a round 4$\times$4$\times$4cm sized mass located in the right lower lobe and abutted on the right diaphragm and metastatic lesions in the right lower lobe and right middle lobe. In exploratory thoracotomy, we discovered a mass originating from the right diaphragm which directly invaded the right lower lobe and metastatic subpleural lesions in the right lower lobe and right middle lobe. The mass was diagnosed as sarcoma by frozen section biopsy and we removed the mass by on bloc resection of the right diaphragm and right lower lobe. Metastatic subpleural lesions in the right lower lobe and right middle lobe were removed by wedge resection. The mass was malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the diaphragm in permanent pathologic examination and chemotherapy was done as adjuvant measure. We report one extremely rare case of malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the diaphragm with literature.

  • Malignant fibrous histiocytoma rarely occurs in the jaws. A case of malignant fibrous histiocytoma originated from the maxillary sinus is reported with review of literature. A 59-year-old woman visited the Chonnam University Hospital in March, 1990, with chief complaint of swelling and tenderness in the right cheek. Radiographic findings revealed wide destruction of the maxilla. The biopsy taken from the maxilla showed histopatholgic findings of malignant fibrous histiocytoma. Accordingly the patient received preoperative and postoperative anticancer chemotherapy by the modified CY-VA-DIC protocol of the Southwest Oncology Group (SWOG). Preoperative and postoperative radiotherapy were also given to her in total 40Gy of $^{60}Co$ And she underwent radical resection of the maxilla. No evidence of recurrence or metastasis was shown for 2-year period of postoperative follow up.

  • Malignant fibrous histiocytoma rarely occurs in the jaws. Although the histogenesis of this tumor remains controversal, it is best regarded as a primitive and pleomorphic nature reflected by collagen production and occasional phagocytosis. It is common for metastatic foci to appear in lung and regional lymph node. There are variable treatments such as radiotherapy, surgical excision or combination therapy of surgical excision, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. With the review of literatures, the authors report the clinical study of two cases of malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the jaw.

  • Benign fibrous histiocytoma is characteristically composed of fibroblastic and histiocytic cells. Most commonly, this tumor occurs in the dermis and superficial subcutis, but it is uncommon in the knee. We experienced a case of deep benign fibrohistiocytoma in a 38-year-old woman who complained of palpable tender mass on the medial aspect of the right knee. MR imaging findings included a well-delineated oval mass with low signal intensity on T1-weighted and high-signal intensity of T2-weighted images, as well as a marked peripheral contrast enhancement. Histopathologically, the lesion contained a mixture of fibroblastic and histiocytic cells that were often arranged in a cartwheel or storiform pattern and accompanied by varying numbers of inflammatory cells, foam cells, and siderophages. After surgical removal of the lesion, no recurrence was observed.

  • Anaplastic large cell lymphoma(ALCL) is an uncommon type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma(NHL) populated with anaplastic, often bizarre cells that express CD30 (Ki-1) antigen. The unusual histologic and cytologic features may cause confusion with other neoplasms, such as poorly differentiated carcinoma, melanoma, Hodgkin's disease, or true histiocytic lymphoma. Although the cytologic features of ALCL have been well described, there are few reports about cytologic findings of the sarcomatold variant of ALCL. We experienced a case of fine needle aspiration(FNA) cytologic findings of ALCL which mimicks malignant fibrous histiocytoma. FNA cytology of chest wall mass in a 62-year-old female with a history of peripheral T-cell lymphoma(Lennert lymphoma) revealed a heterogeneous population of single cells and poorly cohesive cells with large, pleomorphic nuclei and spindle cells gathering around vascular structures within an inflammatory background. Additional features of the neoplastic cells were eccentric, multilobated nuclei with occasional 'wreath-like' configuration; abundant cytoplasm with vacuolization; and prominent nucleoli. The cytologic features suggested sarcoma, especially malignant fibrous histiocytoma. The diagnosis was made retrospectively with an aid of immunocytochemical staining.

  • Malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) is a sarcoma that occurs principally in soft tissue and typically involved the skeletal muscle and deep fascia. Although it is one of the most common types of soft tissue sarcoma in late adult life, the involvement of the head and neck area is relatively rare. MFH shows variable histologic appearance, and may be classified into several subtypes(storiform-pleomorphic, myxoid, giant cell, inflammatory, angiomatoid) and the storiform-pleomorphic type is the most common type. The authors have recently experienced a case of MFH in the right maxillary sinus, and report it with a brief review of the related literature.

  • Malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH), a type of sarcoma, is a malignant neoplasm with uncertain origins that arise from both the soft tissues and the bone. The occurrence of MFH on the chest wall is extremely rare. We hereby report a case of a 72-year-old woman who was incidentally detected with MFH after a traffic accident.

  • 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.

  • Benign fibrous histiocytoma(BFH) is a mesenchymal cell-originated tumor composed of cells with fibroblastic and histiocytic differentiation. BFH occurs predominantly on sun-exposed skin of extremities. Oral BFH lesions are uncommon. The majority of oral lesions includes the soft tissue but not the jaw bones. The lesion appears as well-defined multilocular radiolucencies associated with bony swelling when it occurs on the jaw. The lesion induces the thinning and expansion of the cortex and shows many thin, indistinct septa in the lesion. Surgical excision is the choice of treatment. The recurrence rate is low and metastasis has not been reported. We report the clinical, radiographic and microscopic findings of a BFH case occurred in the mandible with literature reviews.
