Abstract:
Malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the bone is relatively rare than that affecting the soft tissue. The authors have first experienced a case of malignant fibrous histiocytoma affecting the distal tibia of thirty-two years old woman in Korea. We obtained good results from free vascularized fibular graft after radical resection in stead of amputation. A case of malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the bone is reported with brief review of literature.
