  • Title: Malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the larynx.
    Author: Godoy J, Jacobs JR, Crissman J.
    Journal: J Surg Oncol; 1986 Jan; 31(1):62-5. PubMed ID: 3003461.
    Abstract:
    Malignant fibrous histiocytomas of the upper respiratory tract are rare, aggressive, mesenchymal neoplasms. There have been sporadic cases reported in the English language literature. This paper reports the case of a subglottic malignant fibrous histiocytoma in a 26-year-old female. A review of the important clinical-pathological features of this type of tumor is presented. The treatment of choice appears to be wide surgical resection of the tumor. Although the published experience is small, it appears that tumors of the subglottic space are characterized by a younger patient population and a better prognosis than those of the larynx.
