[Clinical characteristics of a malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the soft tissues].
The results of a study of 51 cases of malignant fibrous histiocytoma of soft tissues are discussed. The survival versus clinico-morphological feature correlation was studied. Shorter survival time was found to be associated with pain syndrome and tumor-produced skin symptoms as well as in cases of tumor misdiagnosed as hematoma. Female patients over 50 years showed relatively longer survival time. No correlation was established between survival time and histological pattern of tumor.
