And Function

Five soft tissue tumors of varied morphology in dogs and cats were classified as malignant fibrous histiocytomas on the basis of their histologic composition. All were composed of varying mixtures of histiocytes and fibroblasts and three contained large multinucleated cells. This giant cell variant of malignant fibrous histiocytoma was seen only in cats. These tumors are comparable to those described in man as malignant fibrous histiocytoma on the basis of the malignant histiocyte and its varied morphology and function.

AbstractThe giant cell variant of malignant fibrous histiocytoma is a rare entity in head and neck. Only eight well documented cases of this type are reported in the English literature. These tumours affect the superficial and deep structures of the neck most often and are best treated with prompt radical surgery. The prognosis of the giant cell type of malignant fibrous histiocytoma is dependent on the location of the tumour, with superficial tumours having a much better outlook.

True Neoplasm

Among the more uncommon tumors that may sometimes be encountered in the laryngeal region is the recently described giant cell tumor of the larynx. This lesion is a true neoplasm, presumably of the fibrohistiocytic series. Histologically, it closely resembles the more familiar true giant cell tumor of long bone. The laryngeal giant cell tumors appear, to date, to be nonmetastasizing lesions; it is possible that they may recur locally if incompletely excised (although this remains to be demonstrated). In view of the rarity of these tumors, a tentative diagnosis of such a neoplasm should always prompt consideration of other (more frequently encountered) differential diagnostic possibilities, including cytologically malignant giant cell-rich tumors such as malignant fibrous histiocytoma and sarcomatoid carcinoma.
