ABSTRACT
Malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) is a common soft tissue sarcoma, which shows a strong predilection for distant metastases. Due to its limited response to radiotherapy and chemotherapy , poor prognosis is generally observed. A patient with MFH, who developed pulmonary metastases, postoperatively took ZD1839, an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor, because it was found that there was EGFR expression on the surface of the tumor cells. After a course of treatment (28 days), the pulmonary metastases disappeared, and the patient enjoyed a complete remission.
