  • Title: Primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the intestine: intussusception of a rare neoplasm.
    Author: Sewell R, Levine BA, Harrison GK, Tio F, Schwesinger WH.
    Journal: Dis Colon Rectum; 1980 Apr; 23(3):198-201. PubMed ID: 6247126.
    Abstract:
    Malignant fibrous histiocytoma, a tumor of mesenchymal tissue, is being reported with increased frequency. However, no cases of primary tumors involving the gastrointestinal tract have yet been described. This report documents a case in which the patient clinically manifested a colonic obstruction associated with intussusception. Following radical resection of the mass, close re-evaluation after one year has shown no evidence of tumor recurrence.
