Sažetak

In this article we present the case of a 33-year-old patient with malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the left femur. The patient was admitted in our hospital due to pathological fracture of the left proximal femur.
Upon admission, tumor biopsy was performed and malignant fibrous histiocytoma was confirmed.
Chemotherapy and radiotherapy were performed prior to the second admission to our hospital. We performed extirpation of the tumor in toto and reconstruction with homotransplantat for proximal femur and
implantation of total revision endoprothesis for the left hip. The postoperative course was without complications and the patient started walking with 2 crouches after surgery. A year after surgery there is an adequate postion of homotransplantat and endoprosthesis, there are no signs of relapse and the patient
continues with normal daily activities.
