Abstract

Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS), which was previously known as malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH), rarely presents in the abdomen, and sarcomatosis due to UPS has not yet been reported in the literature. Here, we present a 62-year-old man who had abdominal sarcomatosis due to UPS with a poor prognosis.

Keywords: Abdomen; malignant fibrous histiocytoma; peritoneal sarcomatosis; undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma.
