    Author: Yokota T, Iwamoto K, Kunii Y, Yamauchi H.
    Journal: Ups J Med Sci; 1999; 104(3):231-5. PubMed ID: 10680956.
    Abstract:
    Malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH), also referred to in the past as malignant fibrous xanthoma and fibroxanthosarcoma, is a tumor of mesenchymal tissue origin. A case of retroperitoneal MFH was reported. In this paper, we describe a method of hemostasis and intraoperative control of hemorrhage during resection of retroperitoneal MFH by snaring the feeding arteries. The patient was successfully operated on using this technique.
