Abstract
|
|
|
Malignant fibrous histiocytoma is the major subset of soft tissue sarcomas which occurs most commonly in the extremities and trunk, but rarely in the visceral organs. This report documents a case of malignant fibrous histiocyoma arising in the
omentum
in 36 year-old female whose chief complaints were growing non-tender masses. After surgical resection, there are no evidences of recurrence or metastasis during 4 months follow up period. Electron microscopic study of the tumor showed irregular,
spindle-shaped histiocyte with large indented nuclei and prominent nucleoli. The cytoplasm was abundant with microfilament and distended mitochondria. There was no evidence of myofibril in the tumor.
