Article Synopsis
- Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma, previously known as malignant fibrous histiocytoma, is a common type of soft tissue sarcoma in adults, derived from fibroblast and histiocytic cells.
- It most frequently occurs in the lower limb, but can also be found in the upper limb and retroperitoneum, with rare occurrences on the chest wall.
- The article presents a case study of a male patient with a large undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma located above the right scapula, highlighting its significance in surgical planning for chest wall masses.
Background: Early recanalization of an occluded vessel is associated with a better clinical outcome in acute ischemic stroke. Intravenous thrombolysis using recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) is only available in a minority of patients and often fails to reopen the occluded vessel. Mechanical recanalization is more effective in this matter but only available for selected patients when a thrombectomy centre can be reached.
