Abstract

Fibrous histiocytoma is the soft tissue tumor of histiocytic origin that have a variety of histological patterns. Although cases of malignant fibrous histiocytoma in the head and neck have been reported increasing frequency in recent years, they are rare conditions. We reporeted a case of malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the trachea in which the Patient had been given laryngomicrosurgical biopsy for subglottic mass. Prognosis of malignant fibrous histiocytoma, the use of radiation as primary treatment, and its role in the development of secondary primary tumors in the head and neck region are reviewed.
