Myxofibrosarcoma (MFS) is a rare subtype of soft tissue sarcoma that usually occurs in the extremities of the body. Its location in the head and neck region is unique. Surgery is the primary treatment for all non-metastatic MFS. It has high rates of local recurrence and metastasis. Like other soft tissue sarcomas, the aim of adjuvant treatment is to decrease the chances of local recurrence or metastasis in MFS. Due to its rarity, there is a lack of data showing the benefit of adjuvant treatment in MFS of the head and neck region. We are presenting a case report and literature review on MFS in the head and neck.
黏液纤维肉瘤(MFS)是一种罕见的软组织肉瘤亚型,通常发生于身体四肢。其在头颈部的位置较为独特。手术是所有非转移性MFS的主要治疗方法。它具有较高的局部复发和转移率。与其他软组织肉瘤一样,辅助治疗的目的是降低MFS局部复发或转移的几率。由于其罕见性,缺乏数据表明辅助治疗对头颈部MFS有益。我们现报告一例头颈部MFS病例并进行文献综述。
