  • Title: Malignant fibrous histiocytoma of chest wall.
    Author: An JK, Oh KK.
    Journal: Yonsei Med J; 2005 Feb 28; 46(1):177-80. PubMed ID: 15744825.
    Abstract:
    Primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) of the chest wall is rare. We report a case of primary MFH arising from the chest wall, which was thought to be a metastasis or myeloma. The imaging study revealed a single mass of the chest wall involving a rib. Resection and chest wall reconstruction was done. The histologic diagnosis was storiform-pleomorphic primary MFH. Although MFH of the chest wall is an uncommon pathology, it should be considered in the differentiation of a single bony destructive lesion involving the rib with a soft tissue component.
