    Journal: Vopr Onkol; 1988; 34(7):803-8. PubMed ID: 2844021.
    Abstract:
    The paper deals with a retrospective clinico-anatomical study in 108 cases of malignant fibrous histiocytoma which identified 18 factors influencing the development of recurrences and metastases as well as survival. Computed data were used to form groups suitable for establishing individual prognosis. The latter was done by summing up the relevant specifically-numbered factors. Credibility for prognosis of recurrence development was 85.7%, metastatic development--82.9, three-year survival--71.4 and five-year survival--95.8%.
