Benign fibrous histiocytoma is such a rare tumour that only a few cases have been reported in the literature. A patient with an apparently benign lesion of the distal radius, along with congenital dislocation of the radial head, was presented at St. John's Medical College Hospital in Bangalore, India. Pain was the chief symptom. There were histological features of non-ossifying fibroma in the l...

Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a benign skeletal disorder that can affect one bone (monostotic form) or multiple bones (polyostotic form). It is a non-inherited bone disease, in which abnormal differentiation of osteoblasts leads to replacement of normal marrow and cancellous bone by immature bone with fibrous stroma. It is often asymptomatic and incidentally detected on radiographs. We report this ...

Benign fibrous histiocytoma is a rare tumor of nose and paranasal sinuses that originates from histiocytes. The main symptoms of patients are nasal obstruction and nasal mass. Our patient was presented with chief complaints of nasal obstruction and rhinorrhea non responsive to antibiotic treatment. In computed tomography scan a giant mass in left maxillary sinus and ipsilateral nasal cavity was...

introduction: myxofibrosarcoma was originally described as the myxoid variant of malignant fibrous histiocytoma (mfh), a high-grade and aggressive sarcoma, which is very uncommon in the head and neck region, with about 100 cases reported up to now. mfh occurring in the maxillary sinus is so rare that only 23 cases have been reported. we hereby report a case of myxofibrosarcoma in the maxillary ...

background & aim: malignant fibrous histiocytoma (mfh), is the most common soft tissue sarcoma in adults and is frequently seen is elderly. this lesion is so rare in bones and if seen, is common in long bones and the incidence of the lesion in maxillofacial bones is uncommon. in addition, maxilla is an unusual site for malignant fibrous histiocytoma (mfh). the aim of this article was to report ...

although the majority of mesenchymal lesions of the gastrointestinal tract are neoplastic in nature, but nonneoplastic reactive processes may also involve the gastrointestinal tract and mesentery. some more aggressive neoplasms located in same area, such as fibromatosis or gastrointestinal stromal  tumors  may  be  cause  of  diagnostic  confusion.  reactive  nodular  fibrous  pseudo  tumor (rn...

conclusions this is the first case of sft of the retroperitoneum removed laparoscopically. the laparoscopic approach is useful for the advantages of minimally invasive surgery especially in case of peduncolate tumor as the case reported. case presentation a 29-year-old female, was admitted in the gynaecology and obstetrics unit, for suspected pelvic tumor. ct scan showed a mass with hypervascul...

in this research, a novel method to decrease micro-residual stresses of fibrous composites by adding carbon nanotubes (cnts) is proposed in detail. the negative coefficient of thermal expansion and the high young’s modulus of cnts can be utilized to counterbalance the process induced residual stresses in composites. to this end, first, the effects of adding cnts to the matrix of fibrous composi...

A rare sign of some malignant tumors is a sudden eruption of multiple seborrheic keratoses called Leser-Trélat sign. Overproduction of insulin-like growth factor-2 (IGF2) or its precursor is the main mechanism related to non-islet cell tumor hypoglycemia. Doege-Potter syndrome is the name given to paraneoplastic hypoinsulinemic hypoglycemia in presence of a solitary fibrous tumor. This report d...
