    Author: Jacobs JJ, Rosenbaum DH, Hay RM, Gitelis S, Black J.
    Journal: J Bone Joint Surg Br; 1992 Sep; 74(5):740-4. PubMed ID: 1326562.
    Abstract:
    We present the case of a 65-year-old man who developed a malignant fibrous histiocytoma at the lesser trochanter five months after a cementless hip replacement. We have reviewed reports of similar cases and discuss them in terms of the possible mechanisms of sarcomatous degeneration and the latency of such changes.
