A malignant tumour derived from fibrous connective tissue and characterized by immature proliferating fibroblasts or undifferentiated anaplastic spindle cells.
A malignant tumour of the connective tissue, most common in the legs.
A rare cancer involving connective tissue around a muscle, tendon, or bone. Fibrosarcoma of soft tissue generally originates in the fibrous tissue of the arms, legs, or trunk, often deep within the thigh. Soft-tissue fibrosarcomas most often appear in men in their 40s or 50s. Fibrosarcoma of the bone generally affects the pelvis, leg, arm, or hip. It can occur at any age but is rare in childhood and adolescence. Most fibrosarcomas of the bone occur in adults aged 30 to 40 and appear most commonly in the long bones, particularly of the leg.
A malignant tumor of connective tissue, derived from fibroblasts. Fibrosarcomas may arise in soft tissue or bone; they can affect any organ but are most common in the limbs, particularly the leg. They occur in people of all ages and may be congenital. The cells of these tumors show varying degrees of differentiation; the less well differentiated tumors containing elements of histiocytes have been recently reclassified as malignant fibrous histiocytomas. Tumors arising in soft tissue have a considerably better prognosis than those arising in bone.
A cancer of the connective tissue arising in the fibroblasts stem cells that produce connective tissue cells. These tumours can develop in bone or in soft tissue and occur most commonly in the limbs. Treatment is by surgery and radiotherapy.
A spindle-celled sarcoma containing a large amount of connective tissue.
Fibrosarcoma is a rare and malignant tumor originating from the cells of connective tissue, which is responsible for surrounding and supporting body structures. It can either arise from a pre-existing noncancerous fibroma or may be cancerous from its inception.
The treatment for fibrosarcoma involves surgical removal and/or radiotherapy. However, the success of these treatments may only be temporary if cancer cells have already spread through the bloodstream, leading to the development of growths in other parts of the body.
