Popis: A 63-year-old male spontaneously expectorated a small piece of solid tissue histologically verified as an endobronchial extension of a pulmonary metastasis of high-grade sarcoma. The primary tumor excised from the thigh 18 months before had been diagnosed as a malignant fibrous histiocytoma. The tumor fragment was reactive for desmin, MyoD1, and myogenin, favoring the alternative diagnosis of high-grade rhabdomyosarcoma.
