  • Title: Benign fibrous histiocytoma: a rare finding on bone scan staging for prostate adenocarcinoma.
    Author: Simon MA, Miles BJ.
    Journal: Urol Oncol; 2003; 21(1):45-7. PubMed ID: 12684127.
    Abstract:
    Benign fibrous histiocytoma is a rare bone tumor that usually presents with localized pain and/or a pathological fracture. We report on a patient with adenocarcinoma of the prostate who had a radionuclide bone scan for staging, which was suspicious for metastatic disease. Histologic examination of left eleventh rib revealed a Benign Fibrous Histiocytoma (BFH). To our knowledge, this is the first BFH found solely on bone scan.
