  • Title: A rare case of malignant fibrous histiocytoma/ pleomorphic undifferentiated sarcoma of the kidney.
    Author: Pathrose G, John NT, Manojkumar R.
    Journal: J Clin Diagn Res; 2015 Jan; 9(1):PD27-9. PubMed ID: 25738036.
    Abstract:
    Malignant Fibrous Histiocytoma (MFH) usually arises from the extremities with the retroperitoneum being the second most common site. We present the case report of a 58-year-old man presenting with fever and was detected to have a renal mass on evaluation. He underwent a radical nephrectomy with a preoperative diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma. But the final histopathological report was MFH. Primary renal MFH is extremely rare and is usually diagnosed on histopathology with the aid of immunohistochemistry.
