Report of a Malignant Fibrous Histiocytoma in a young patient :A fast growing lump
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 9, Issue 4
Abstract
Malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH), a type of sarcoma, is a malignant neoplasm of uncertain origin that arises both in soft tissue and bone. We present a case of MFH in a 18-year-old-female patient with swelling on the left maxillary posterior region .This paper demonstrates the malignant character of this neoplasm. CT scans revealed a clouding lesion in the left maxillary premolar and molar region. Histopathological examination showed numerous short fascicles of plump spindle cells arranged in a storiform pattern, admixed with areas of pleomorphic giant cells. Treatment plan consisted of resection of the tumor with maxillary osteotomy and chemotherapy.
