title: [Malignant fibrous histiocytoma in the kidney of a dog].
abstract: Malignant fibrous histiocytomas occur rarely in internal organs of dogs. Only the spleen has been demonstrated as a primary site of tumor origin. In humans, malignant fibrous histiocytomas originate frequently from any retroperitoneal organ. This case report describes the clinical disease and morphological findings in a dog with a renal malignant fibrous histiocytoma.
