    Journal: Indian J Gastroenterol; 2001; 20(6):242-3. PubMed ID: 11817780.
    Abstract:
    Malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) is a high-grade soft-tissue sarcoma of fibroblast-cell origin with a propensity for metastasis and recurrence. Primary MFH of the peritoneum is rare. We report a 60-year-old man with MFH of the peritoneum presenting with obstructive symptoms. Complete surgical excision of the tumor was done, and he is well six months later.
