Aneurysmal fibrous histiocytoma (AFH) is a rare variant of cutaneous fibrous histiocytoma, with low malignant potential and infrequent metastatic progression. We present the case of a 19-year-old female with a large AFH of the neck metastatic to soft tissue and treated with radiation therapy and molecularly targeted therapy. To our knowledge, this is the first report describing either radiation therapy and palliation or the use of targeted therapy in this uncommon malignancy and can provide insight into future therapeutic strategies.
动脉瘤样纤维组织细胞瘤(AFH)是皮肤纤维组织细胞瘤的一种罕见变体,恶性潜能低,转移进展不常见。我们报告了一例19岁女性患者,其颈部有一个巨大的AFH转移至软组织,接受了放射治疗和分子靶向治疗。据我们所知,这是第一份描述在这种罕见恶性肿瘤中使用放射治疗和姑息治疗或靶向治疗的报告,可为未来的治疗策略提供见解。
