Enzinger and Weiss' classified angiomatoid malignant fibrous histiocytoma (AMFH) as a subtype of malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH). Clinically, AMFH manifests itself as a multinodular or multicystic, hemorrhagic mass.<sup>1</sup>We saw a patient with a markedly bleeding, cystic tumor on chronic radiodermatitis of the lower abdomen.
