Key result
Sonographic evaluation of two cases of primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the thyroid adds to the limited literature on the imaging features of this rare malignancy.
Case Report (n=2)
Provides sonographic features of a very rare thyroid malignancy.
Sonographic features of this rare thyroid malignancy are now better documented; leaves open prospective validation of diagnostic criteria.
Primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the thyroid is an uncommon malignancy of the thyroid. Because it is rare, fewer than 20 cases have been reported in the literature, and the sonographic features of only 2 cases have been reported between the 1980s and 2014. Here we report 2 cases of primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the thyroid with an emphasis on the sonographic findings, and we review the published literature.
