Abstract

We report a case of primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the breast in a 13-year old girl. She has had wide local excision of the tumour and six cycles of adjuvant cytotoxic chemotherapy. Four years after treatment, she was free from local recurrence; however, the presence of distant metastasis could not be assessed because of inadequate imaging investigations.
