    Author: Bullon A, Nistal M, Razquin S, Novo A, Fregenal J, Regadera J.
    Journal: J Hand Surg Am; 1986 Sep; 11(5):744-8. PubMed ID: 3020118.
    Abstract:
    A 3-year-old girl had a 4-month history of a tumor in her right hand. The tumor was located in the subcutaneous and soft tissues of the palm and the long, ring, and small fingers. Histologic studies showed a malignant fibrous histiocytoma that was confirmed by the ultrastructural study as having a fibroblastic and histiocytic origin. The long, ring, and small fingers were amputated. The postoperative course was normal, and 18 months later no recurrence or metastases were observed.
