The effect of mild hyperthermia on a cultured rat malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) cell line, MFH-2NR, was investigated. MFH cells in log-phase (growing phase) were heated at 41 degrees-44 degrees C for 1 hr. Hyperthermic treatment at 41 degrees C did not substantially affect cell proliferation
Malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the bone is a very rare tumour mainly affecting long bones, and the most common presenting symptom is local pain. A case of malignant fibrous histiocytoma presenting with pyrexia of undetermined origin and arising in the sternum, a localization not previously
Primary intra-abdominal malignant mesenchymal tumours are very rare and there are not many cases of visceral malignant fibrous histiocytoma in the English literature. We report a new case of abdominal malignant fibrous histiocytoma presenting as abdominal pain and pyrexia of unknown origin in a 54
We describe a widespread papular eruption in a 5-year-old girl with rheumatic fever. Histological examination revealed a dense histiocytic infiltration in the dermis. On immunohistochemical studies, the cells were positive for vimentin, CD68, MAC387, alpha1-antichymotrypsin and lysozyme, but
We describe a rare case of pleomorphic type of malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) in the buttock that presented a systemic involvement. The case was of a 58-year-old woman presenting hepatic dysfunction and inflammatory reactions including fever, positive C-reactive protein (CRP), an elevated
We have previously reported the unique heat sensitivity of a cell line of malignant fibrous histiocytoma cells, the MFH-2NR cell line. In the present study, treatment of MFH-2NR cells, at 43 degrees C for 1 h evoked typical apoptosis in these cells, which showed characteristic morphological changes,
Non-Langerhans cell histiocytoses were originally described as individual diagnoses. However, evidence has been mounting that these entities are manifestations on a spectrum of the same disease. The authors present a patient who initially presented with lymphadenopathy, pancytopenia, splenomegaly,
A case of a retroperitoneal myxoid variant of malignant fibrous histiocytoma is reported. The chief complaints were remittent fever and a painful mass on the right flank, which were misdiagnosed as acute inflammatory disease.
Inflammatory malignant fibrous histiocytomas (IMFH) are rare tumors and are frequently associated with leukocytosis. In rare cases, leukemoid reactions were attributed to tumor production of unidentified hematopoietic factors. In this study, we used immunohistochemical techniques to show cytokine
