Multicenter Study
Prognostic factors for patients with localized primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma: a multicenter study of 216 patients with multivariate analysis.
The purpose of this study was to determine the independent prognostic variables in a well documented subset of 216 patients with localized primary malignant fibrous histiocytomas (MFH). ⋯ Resection of all macroscopic disease was independently associated with improved disease specific survival and adjuvant radiotherapy significantly decreased the local relapse risk. Histopathologic grade was the most important prognostic factor for DSS and MFS.
