Abstract

Besides renal cell carcinoma with increased risk reported in the dialysis population, other unusual types of renal tumors should also be considered. However, to the best of our knowledge, renal sarcomas have never been reported among end-stage renal disease patients undergoing dialysis in the literature. In this study, we present the first case of a primary renal malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH, also called undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma) in a 41-year-old woman with end-stage renal disease.
