Malignant fibrous histiocytoma of prostate gland.
The English language medical literature does not contain any definitive reports of malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) arising in the prostate gland. A case of prostatic MFH is described, characterized by rapid local tumor progression and pulmonary metastases. The histologic diagnosis was supported by immunohistochemical and electron microscopic studies.
