“…In the present study it was found to be very malignant 'and prognosis was worse than for osteo-sarcoma. The average period of survival was 1.8 years and the results of treatment were similar to those reported elsewhere (Spanier et al 1975, Slootweg et al 1975, Webber et al 1977.…”

“…[20] Their origin is questionable because although it has been reported that they originate from bone, their incidence as soft tissue tumors is far more than that as bone tumors. [21] The histological characteristics of MFH include cell atypia, hyperchromatic nuclei, pleomorphism, poor cell differentiation, high mitotic activity and necrotic areas.…”

Histiocytomas constitute a large group of tumors, the classification of which created a lot of confusion in the past. For this reason, various attempts were carried out during the last years so that a widely accepted classification system could be defined. Fibroxanthomas, according to contemporary data, are classified into benign histiocytomas and they are mostly located at the skin of extremities. They are rarely localized in the area of the head and neck, where they are found commonly in soft tissue. Fibroxanthomas located at the bones of oral and maxillofacial region are extremely rare. The purpose of this paper is to present a case of a fibroxanthoma located at the mandible as well as to analyze the histological findings of the lesion on which the diagnosis and differential diagnosis were based.

“…Both haematogenous and lymphatic spread has been observed 17,22. When the head and neck is affected, the maxilla is most often involved 9, 12, 14, 18 The mandible appears to be the next most frequently implicated 19,23,26. Yet, in a recent review of this topic by Wu no mention was made of a calvarial origin for this lesion 25.…”

Malignant fibrous histiocytoma only infrequently arises from structures of the head and neck. When it does, it most often originates in facial structures, particularly the maxilla. This case report details a malignant fibrous histiocytoma arising from the pericranium, and presenting clinically as a large indurated frontal calvarial mass. A CT scan showed its origin to be from the pericranium and demonstrated its intracranial extension. Radical excision presented a surgical challenge because of the extensiveness of the lesion. Yet, combined with post-operative teletherapy, a favourable outcome was obtained.
