ABSTRACT

Malignant fibrous histiocytoma is uncommon in the head and neck, the sinonasal tract being the most common location. We experienced a case of malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the maxillary sinus developed in a 47-year-old woman who was presented with nasal pain, nasal obstruction and a swelling of the face. The patient received total maxillectomy with postoperative irradiation, and the patient was well and free of recurrence or metastasis for 48 months postoperatively. The characteristics, difficulties in diagnosis, and therapeutic strategies of this tumor are reveiwed. (J Clinical Otolaryngol 2002;13:216–219)
