Abstract
|
|
|
|
Low grade fibromyxoid sarcoma (LGFM) is a rare, deep soft-tissue malignant tumor. Although its histologic features are benign, the clinical course is malignant. The usual tumor locations are the lower extremity and chest wall. LGFM originating from the visceral pleura is extremely rare. We report here on a 37 year old man with a LGFM of the visceral pleura. Thirty three months after surgery, the patient is alive without any sign of local recurrence or distant metastasis. (Korean J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2008;41:141-144)
