A case of primary fibrosarcoma of the liver occurring in a 51-year-old man is added to 11 previously published cases. The neoplasm was moderately differentiated and occurred in a cirrhotic liver. Review of the literature revealed this to be the 3rd case of fibrosarcoma associated with cirrhosis. In 4 additional cases of cirrhosis-associated fibrosarcoma, a coexistent primary carcinoma was present in a different part of the same liver.
