Abstract

Malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the head and neck is a rare tumor with less than 50 total cases reported in the literature. Its rarity and complex histopathology combine to make it a difficult diagnosis. Two cases are described. Pathology characteristics are discussed. The traditional treatment of choice is wide surgical excision. Radiation therapy is usually reserved for recurrent, unresectable, or extremely aggressive tumors.
