title: [Post-radiation mandibular fibrous histiocytoma. Apropos of a case and literature review].
abstract: Postirradiation sarcoma of the head and neck has rarely been reported. A case of malignant fibrous histiocytoma (M.F.H.) occurring in the mandible is presented. Head and neck region was previously irradiated for Hodgkin's disease. The interval from initial radiation to diagnosis of sarcoma was 10 years. Aggressive treatment with early radical excision is the treatment of choice. In spite of extensive surgery, the patient died one year after treatment with local recurrence.
