Purpose To present a case of intraocular invasion by an orbital malignant fibrous histiocytoma. Methods Case report. Case Report An 84-year-old man was exenterated due to a malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the right orbit. On image investigation and histologic sections, the tumor entirely filled the right eye and orbit. The patient died of intracranial spread of the lesion. Conclusions Fibrous histiocytoma of the orbit can invade the eye.

Malignant primary tumors of the heart are very rare and in most cases are located in the left side of the heart, but involvement of the moderator band of the right heart has not yet been described in the literature. We report the case of a 22-year-old woman who presented after an episode of transient sudden loss of consciousness. The transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and transesophageal echocardiography evaluations showed an echogenic mass that originated in the right ventricle and protruded into the tricuspid valve during systole. While operating on the patient, we found a sessile tumor that originated exclusively from the moderator band of the right ventricle. The tumor was completely resected through the tricuspid valve. An immunohistochemistry examination of the tumor confirmed the diagnosis of a malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) (undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma). To our knowledge, this case is the first of moderator band involvement among the 50 cases of primary MFH of the heart that have been reported in the literature. After a year and a half, TTE, computed tomography (CT), and positron emission tomography CT (PET-CT) showed the absence of cardiac tumor, a normal tricuspid function, and no metastasis. The completeness of the surgical resection and the absence of local recurrence >1 year after surgery are encouraging signs for the patient's outcome.

Over a period of 18 years, 39 cases of cardiac tumors were operated upon in the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery at the Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education and Research, Chandigarh. These included 34 (87%) patients with benign tumors and 5 (13%) patients with primary malignant tumors. All the benign tumors were myxomas, of which 31 (91.2%) were in the left atrium and 3 (8.8%) in right atrium. Primary malignant tumors comprised 2 rhabdomyosarcomas, 1 angiosarcoma, 1 lymphoma and 1 case of pleomorphic malignant fibrous histiocytoma. The diagnosis was established by echocardiography, angiocardiography and computed tomography. In one case the diagnosis was made at autopsy. All myxomas, except tricuspid valve myxoma, were removed completely through right atrial or biatrial approach with the use of cardiopulmonary bypass. Four cases of primary malignant tumors were non-resectable. Near total resection of a malignant fibrous histiocytoma arising from the right middle pulmonary vein and left atrial junction was achieved. There were 2 operative deaths (5.1 %). The follow-up ranged from 3 months to 10 years with a mean of 5.7 years. There was 1 recurrence (2.9%) in the benign group. In the malignant group, 3 cases (60%) died within 5 to 8 months of surgery due to further local and metastatic spread of the tumor. The case of malignant fibrous histiocytoma was treated with postoperative radiotherapy to the right mediastinum and is doing well at follow-up 3 months after surgery.
