    Abstract:
    An autopsy case of postirradiation sarcoma is described. The tumor, a malignant fibrous histiocytoma, occurred in the radiation fied 7 years after postoperative external beam radiation therapy (6000 rad) for squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix. To our knowledge, 11 cases of postirradiation malignant fibrous histiocytoma have been reported in the literature and only one occurrence of this neoplasm after treatment for cervical cancer has been described. We review the literature on postirradiation sarcoma with special attention to malignant fibrous histiocytoma.
