The benign fibrous histiocytoma or fibrohistiocytoma is a benign neoplasm involving fibroblasts and histiocytes. The tumor occurs most often in the skin of the extremities, rarely commits deep soft tissues and parenchymal organs. The diagnosis can be very difficult and is histologically confirmed only. We present a case of a male patient of 14 months old, who presents with ascites due an unresectable benign fibrous histiocytoma. Was managed with four cycles of chemotherapy ARST protocol without evidence of improvement.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
