Angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma (AFH) is a rare soft tissue tumour of uncertain differentiation and low metastatic potential, which occurs predominantly in children and young adults. It occurs mostly within the extremities, trunk, head and neck. We report the case of a 32-year-old female that was
Intracranial fibrous histiocytomas are rare; Benign Fibrous Histiocytoma (BFH) being uncommon than its malignant counterpart. BFH comprises fibroblasts and histiocytes without any nuclear pleomorphism or atypia. We present a case of a 42-year-old male who had swelling over the occipital region for
We present CT and MRI of an intracranial malignant fibrous histiocytoma in a 5-year-old girl with headache and vomiting. This case is unusual particular by virtue of its radiological appearances and the young age of the patient.
OBJECTIVE
Malignant fibrous histiocytoma in the central nervous system is uncommon. Fewer than 70 cases have been documented and, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first case arising from the cerebellum.
METHODS
A 44-year-old woman presented with headaches, vomiting, and dizziness. A
A 69-year-old male, treated for colonic carcinoma 15 years back, presented to our services with status epilepticus. He had complaints of headache and vomiting for 7 days prior to presentation. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging of the brain revealed heterogeneous, lobulated and
Benign fibrous histiocytomas (BFH) are neoplasms of the soft tissue and bone composed of fibroblastic and histiocytic components without any nuclear pleomorphism or histological anapalsia. Primary intracranial fibrous histiocytomas are rare entities. In comparison with the malignant counterpart, BFH
We describe herein a patient with primary intracerebral malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) to demonstrate this very rare central nervous system tumor. A 42-year-old male was admitted to our institute with the complaints of headache and speech impairment. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a
This is the second reported case of a malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the heart that metastasized to the brain.

METHODS
A 74-year-old Chinese man presented with a one-month history of recurrent headaches, vomiting and left limb atony. He had undergone a successful clipping operation through the
Intracranial myxoid mesenchymal tumor harboring EWSR1 fusions with CREB family of genes was recently described, and it resembles the myxoid variant of angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma. We present three pediatric patients with intracranial EWSR1-rearranged myxoid mesenchymal neoplasm and provide a
Background and importance: In the setting of intracranial neoplasms, EWSR1-cAMP Response Element-Binding Protein (CREB) transcription factor family fusions have been described in myxoid mesenchymal tumors, extremely rare entities with a
Background: Angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma (AFH) is a rare, fibrohistiocytic, soft-tissue neoplasm. Intracranial AFH is extremely rare. Herein, we present two pediatric cases of intracranial AFH and perform a literature review on this
Two cases of brain tumors which developed after radiotherapy against retinoblastomas are reported. A 17-year-old girl was admitted with a chief complaint of swelling in her forehead after head injury in July, 1981. At 7 months old her left eye had been enucleated and she had received radiation
Primary fibrosarcoma of the central nervous system (CNS) is an extremely rare tumor. To the best of our knowledge, only 40 cases have been reported in the literature. We document such a case in a 9-year-old child who presented with a short history of headache and vomiting. A mass was completely
15 patients aged between 24 and 66 years with 10 different malignant tumor diseases were treated with a recombinant human tumor necrosis factor preparation PAC-4D in a phase-I trial. The starting dose was 10(5) U PAC-4D as an intravenous short infusion. The maximally tolerable dose is around 18 X
