The malignant fibrous histyocitoma (FHM) is the most frequent histological variant of the group of the sarcomas of soft parts diagnosed in the adult. It is a slightly common neoplasia that is located generally in the low extremities. They are aggressive tumors, with great trend to the local relapse and to the systemic late metastasis. The lung and the liver are the most frequent locations. They present short survivals. The radical surgery is the treatment of choice. The patients with pulmonary metastasis benefit from the surgery.

We present a clinical case of inguinal pleomorfic malignant fibrous histyocitoma whit early bilateral pulmonary metastasis and late ones treated surgically.
