Malignant fibrous histiocytoma: a retrospective evaluation of 24 patients
Abstract:
Twenty-four patients with malignant fibrous histiocytoma are being analyzed: 54.2% occurred in the sixth, seventh, and eighth decades of life; 45.8% were located in the extremities. This is a soft tissue sarcoma noted for its pleomorphic histologic appearance. It is postulated that the origin cell is a histiocyte. The local recurrence of metastatic potential of this tumor is difficult to predict from its histological features. Local recurrence after complete excision is frequent. Also, there is a high incidence of distant metastases. Wide local excision with a wide margin around the tumor is the most important treatment modality. The use of postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy needs to be evaluated.

Globular and Fibrous Proteins
Globular proteins are also known as spheroproteins and typically are approximately round in shape. They contain a mix of amino acid types and contain differing sequences in their primary structures. Globular proteins have many different functions, such as enzymes, cellular messengers, and molecular transporters. These roles often require the proteins to be...

Suture
All the bones of the skull, except for the mandible, are joined to each other by a fibrous joint called a suture. The fibrous connective tissue found at a suture strongly unites the adjacent skull bones and thus helps to protect the brain and form the face. In...
