Abstract
This light microscopically pleomorphic tumor, which occurred in the renal capsule of 35-year-old female was diagnosed as a malignant fibrous histiocytoma. Ultrastructurally, the tumor showed two major components; fibroblast-like and histiocyte-like cells. This report stresses the rarity of such neoplasm in the kidney and also the usefulness of electron microscopy in establishing the diagnosis.This publication has 13 references indexed in Scilit:
