Abstract

Malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) of the breast is extremely rare and most of the previous reports were focused on the clinicopathological features of breast MFH, so analysis of its imaging findings have been limited. We report a case of MFH involving left breast and left axilla, metastasized from known MFH of left forearm, with focusing on imaging findings based on radiologic evaluation of the breast including mammography, ultrasound and breast MRI.

유방의 악성 섬유성 조직구종은 극히 드문 질환으로 이전에 보고된 대부분의 증례들은 임상병리학적 특성에 초점을 맞추어 이 질환의 영상소견에 대한 분석은 제한적이었다. 우리는 좌측 전완부로 부터 전이된 좌측 유방과 좌측 액와부의 악성 섬유성 조직구종 1예를 유방촬영, 유방 초음파 및 유방 자기공명영상 등의 영상의학적 소견에 초점을 맞추어 보고 하고자 한다.
