Introduction. Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma, previously known as malignant fibrous histiocytoma, is the most common soft tissue sarcoma in adults, and retroperitoneum is the second most common location. Case Report. We present a case of a 60-year-old female patient with a painless mass in the left hemiabdomen. Computed tomography revealed a well defined retroperitoneal mass, while magnetic resonance showed a lobulated hypointense mass on T1-weighted and heterogeneous on T2-weighted images 180 x 230 x 250 mm in size, with intense peripheral enhancement. The patient underwent complete tumor excision, as well as reoperation after local recurrence. After histopathological and immunohistochemical analysis of the operating material, the diagnosis of malignant fibrous histiocytoma (giant cell type) was made. Conclusion. Radiological imaging has a limited diagnostic accuracy in undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcomas and definitive diagnosis relies on histopathological confirmation.

Pleomorphic sarcoma of the larynx is a rare variant of laryngeal cancer. We present the case of a 59-year-old male patient who has been smoking for 40 years. He presented with signs and symptoms of an obstructive glottic mass. The diagnostic workup pointed to a malignant pathology; the histopathology report confirmed the diagnosis of glottic undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (malignant fibrous histiocytoma).

Pleomorphic Sarcoma

Introduction. Malignant fibrous histiocytoma is a fast spreading pleomorphic sarcoma with a high malignant potential. Its spreading is characterized with local invasion and distant metastazes with early onset. Most common localisations of development are extremities, trunk and retroperitoneum. Given the line of rare case and specimen, lack of a clear etiology and mechanisms of this disease, as well as adequate histopathologic findings and intraoperative documentation, we presented current status, discuss putative etiology, histopathology with variant morphology, differential diagnosis and treatment modalities. Case report. We presented a 56-years-old female Serbian with tumor in the thigh that clinically resembles incapsulated hematoma. Computed tomography revealed intramuscular tumor with a heterodense structure and compression on surround tissue. Ex tempore biopsy specimen showed malignant potential of the tumor. Wide and radical excision of the nodule has been done, and definitive histopathological verification revealed malignant fibrous histiocytoma. Conclusion. Malignant fibrous histiocytoma is a most common type of soft tissue sarcomas in adults. Frequent localization is on lower extremities, and every rapidly enlarging nodule in this localization that on computed tomography is like incapsulated hematoma with necrotic zone should alert suspicion on presence of this type of sarcoma.
