Abstract :
The Myxoid variant of malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) is proposed as a separate subgroup of MFH because of its distinctive appearance and better prognosis compared with the storiform-pleomorphic type. A 56 year old female patient presented with a recurrent painful swelling in the lateral aspect of right thigh since 2 months. Histopathological examination revealed MFH of myxoid subtype. Excision with wide margins is the treatment of first choice.
