Malignant fibrous histiocytoma developing in a burn scar.
Burns 1999 December
Malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) which is usually originated from muscles and deep fascia and rarely from the subcutaneous tissue is the most common soft tissue sarcoma; and it frequently invades the extremities. Occurrence of this tumor on a burn scar of scalp is a very rare entity. In the literature, there were only four reported malign fibrous histiocytoma cases that originated from a burn scar but none of them was at the scalp region. A female patient complaining about a painful mass at the scalp region was admitted to our clinic twenty years after burning with hot water when she was 3 years old. Pathological and clinical features of this rapidly growing malignant fibrous histiocytoma were similar with the other cases reported before. After the diagnosis was clear as a pleomorphic storiform type of MFH, a wide tumor excision was done because of the high risk of local recurrence.
