Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EH) is an uncommon low-grade malignant soft-tissue tumor; no case has been previously reported where multicentric epithelioid hemangioendothelioma occurred in the same lower extremity at different sites. We report a case involving the common peroneal nerve and subsequently the long bone and the short bones of the same lower extremity, and also review the litera...

Vulvar epithelioid hemangioendothelioma as primary site is extremely rare tumor that may be confused with other mesenchymal tumors due to their rarity and its histologic features. We report a case of 46-year-old woman who presented to hospital with left vulvar mass. The mass was located in subcutaneous area of vulva, and well marginated contrast enhanced on radiologic examination. Local excisio...

Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma is a vascular tumor with an intermediate malignant potential. This tumor is very rare in the lung parenchyma, and most of the previously reported cases have been asymptomatic. There is no standard therapy for this tumor and prognosis in the previous reports has been variable. Herein we report our experience with a 60-year-old woman presenting with hemoptysis and...

With the exception of leiomyomas, soft tissue tumors of the uterine corpus are not common. This is particularly true for vascular neoplasms, with the epithelioid hemangioendothelioma being a curiosity; not more than twenty-two cases of malignant hemangioendotheliomas have been reported in the literature so far, all of which were high-grade hemangioendotheliomas (hemangiosarcomas). We present he...

A 19-year-old woman was referred to our hospital because of bilateral multiple nodular shadows on the chest radiograph. She complained of no symptoms. The pulmonary lesions were diagnosed pathologically as epithelioid hemangioendothelioma. She has been followed without treatment for more than 10 years. Among all lesions, only two pulmonary nodules enlarged slightly, and it is interesting that o...

Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma is a rare vascular tumor, which occurs in the lung, liver, bone, and soft tissue. Hypertrophic osteoarthropathy is a syndrome characterized by subperiosteal new bone formation, joint effusion and clubbing, and may be associated with cyanotic heart disease, chronic pulmonary disease, liver disease, and other miscellaneous diseases. The activation of endothelium a...

A 37-year-old woman presented with left eye pain, headaches, and vision loss. MRI showed a left sphenoid mass, with optic nerve compression and proptosis (figure 1). The left eye had minimal reactivity to light, scleral erythema, and proptosis. A metastatic lesion or a lymphoma was suspected; however, pathology showed an epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (figure 2). There was no extracranial dis...

INTRODUCTION Epitheloid hemangioendothelioma is a rare vascular soft tissue tumour of intermediate malignant potential. The tumor affects any age group, and liver is the commonest internal organ affected. Bones as calvarium, spine, tibia and femur may also be affected. The lesion can be multifocal in the liver or the same bone itself and can metastasise to lungs. Here we report a rare case of e...

OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and biologic behaviour of epithelioid hemangioendothelioma in the oral cavity. MATERIALS AND METHODS The clinical features and pathological findings of nine cases with intraoral epithelioid hemangioendothelioma were reviewed, including immunohistochemistry study. RESULTS This series comprised seven males and two females aged 6...
