Abstrakt: Malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) is the most frequently diagnosed soft-tissue tumour in adults. Many patients have metastases already at diagnosis. Bleeding metastases in the gastrointestinal tract are very rare. We present what we believe to be the first reported case of bleeding metastasis from a malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the small bowel.
