The authors present a very rare case of benign fibrous histiocytoma of the skull with increased intracranial pressure caused by sinus occlusion. A 33-year-old woman was referred for investigation of a right occipital protrusion with tenderness and double vision. She had only mild divergence insufficiency and bilateral papilledema neurologically. Imaging findings showed that the skull tumor was located at the right occipital bone with bone disruption and a compressed right sigmoid sinus. When planning the resection, caution was required to spare the collateral flow so as to manage the intracranial pressure. Immunohistochemical analysis showed that the tumor was positive for CD68, α1-antichymotrypsin, and α1-antitrypsin. From these findings, the tumor was diagnosed as a primary benign fibrous histiocytoma of the skull.

Introduction. Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma, previously known as malignant fibrous histiocytoma, is the most common soft tissue sarcoma in adults, and retroperitoneum is the second most common location. Case Report. We present a case of a 60-year-old female patient with a painless mass in the left hemiabdomen. Computed tomography revealed a well defined retroperitoneal mass, while magnetic resonance showed a lobulated hypointense mass on T1-weighted and heterogeneous on T2-weighted images 180 x 230 x 250 mm in size, with intense peripheral enhancement. The patient underwent complete tumor excision, as well as reoperation after local recurrence. After histopathological and immunohistochemical analysis of the operating material, the diagnosis of malignant fibrous histiocytoma (giant cell type) was made. Conclusion. Radiological imaging has a limited diagnostic accuracy in undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcomas and definitive diagnosis relies on histopathological confirmation.
