Primary Malignant Fibrous Histiocytoma of the Jejunum

ABSTRACT

Malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) occurs primarily in the extremities and trunk, however primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the alimentary tract, particularly of the jejunum, is uncommon. This case report presents a case of malignant fibrous histiocytoma as the primary lesion of the jejunum in a 42-year-old male patient with a 10-day history of melena. A small bowel tumor was resected without complication. The final diagnosis was based on the pathological report of the surgical specimen.
