 ==History and Symptoms==
-MFH occurs most commonly in the extremities and [[retroperitoneum]], but has been reported in many other sites (lung, head/neck, etc.).  Development of [[metastasis]] depends on the tumor's subtype.  Metastasis occurs most frequently in the lung (90%), bone (8%) and liver (1%).  In the extremities, it presents as a painless enlarging soft tissue mass.  It can develop anywhere in the soft tissue, but also occurs at sites of previous radiation treatment, shrapnel implantation or next to [[prostheses]].
