Title: Malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the liver: a case report and review of the literature. Author: Akifuji Y, Honjo I, Katayama S, Ishitobi S, Ueki J, Kishi K, Kato K, Nakamoto S. Journal: Intern Med; 1992 Feb; 31(2):284-8. PubMed ID: 1318120. Abstract: Primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) of the liver is reported in a 79-year-old man. The tumor, measuring 8.0 x 8.0 x 6.0 cm, was located in the left lobe of the liver and consisted of spindle cells in a storiform pattern intermingled with bizarre giant cells. Immunohistochemically, most of the tumor cells expressed vimentin. Cytoplasmic immunoreactivity for alpha 1-antichymotrypsin was documented in the giant cells. However, epithelial expression could not be demonstrated.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
