This study presents the case of an 87‑year‑old male who developed a huge tumor at the chest wall that limited the range of motion of the upper limb. We performed a wide excision of the tumor with chest wall reconstruction. The tumor exhibited lobulated pattern with myxoid fluid and fibrous tissue, which was accumulated by a thin capsule. The final diagnosis was myxoinflammatory fibroblastic sarcoma (MIFS), a kind of uncommon low‑grade malignant tumor that extremely develops rarely in the chest wall. At this
moment, we review the epidemiology, histopathologic characteristics, similar cases, and the current treatment for MIFS. |
