Imaging Diagnosis of Primary Malignant Fibrous Histiocytoma of Bone(A Report of 8 Cases) / 实用放射学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the imaging features and its value in diagnosing primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma(MFH) of bone.Methods Imaging features(X-ray,CT,MRI) in 8 cases of MFH confirmed pathologically,and were retrospectively reviewed.Results The location of lesions in 6 cases was in upper femur,2 cases was in upper tibilar.Worm-eaten-like bone destruction withindistinct margin was presented on X-ray film,some lesions showed slightly marginal sclerosis.Tumors were soft tissue density on CT(CT value was 34~35 HU).The masses of soft tissue were showed much distinct.Conclusion The primary MFH of bone is not of characteristic imaging findings.It can improve obviously the diagnosis of the disease by the comprehensive analysis of the imaging data.
