A 17-year-old Hispanic female presented to our hospital with complaints of right upper quadrant abdominal pain, vomiting, and fever. Physical exam was positive for hepatomegaly. Abdominal computed tomography showed multiple hypoechoic liver masses. Liver biopsy was done, which was diagnostic for hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma.

Pulmonary epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (PEH) is a rare tumor that occurs among young women and typically presents as bilateral multiple nodules. In the present report, we describe an uncommon case of PEH presented as a single cavitary nodule in a 33-yr-old asymptomatic man. This is the first case of PEH presented as a single cavitary nodule in the English literature. Three years of the foll...

Pulmonary epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (PEH), previously known as "intravascular bronchoalveolar tumor," is a rare vascular malignancy with an unpredictable prognosis. Treatment can vary from observation in asymptomatic patients to surgery in patients with resectable disease or chemotherapy in patients with disseminated disease. This report describes the clinical, radiological and pathologi...

Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) is a rare tumor of vascular origin. While it can be found in any tissue, it is most often found in lung and liver and usually has an intermediate behavior. EHEs originating from pleural tissue have been less frequently described than those from other sites. Furthermore, to date, all of the cited pleural EHEs were described as highly aggressive. In the pres...

A case of a rare epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) with multifocal location in a 32 year-old male is reported. The patient presented to our hospital with a knee pain. After thorough investigations and establishing the diagnosis, surgical treatment was done. This tumor involves bones of the axial skeleton and long tubular bones. EHE is usually multifocal in more than 50% of the cases. The m...

Epithelioid haemangioendothelioma (EHE) is a rare tumour of endothelial cell origin that arises from soft tissue, liver, lungs and rarely, the brain. We present a case of cerebral EHE in a 43 year old previously well female, who suffered two generalised tonic-clonic seizures. Contrast enhanced CT and MRI brain showed a left frontal lobe vividly enhancing intra-axial lesion at the grey-white jun...

INTRODUCTION Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) of the bone is extremely rare and occurs predominantly in males. It most frequently occurs during the second and third decades of life. The lower extremities are most commonly involved. We describe a diagnostically challenging case of epithelioid hemangioendothelioma of proximal phalanx of 2nd toe of left foot with histological features remini...

Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) was first described by Weiss and Enzinger in 1982 and has been suggested to be a malignant vascular neoplasm with indolent behavior [1]. A 65-year-old female patient presented to our hospital with fever, back pain and pain in her buttocks. On examination, the only pathological sign were cutaneous nodules appearing in her right thigh (Figure 1 A). The histo...

We describe the case of a 70-year-old man with unicentric grade 1 epitheloid hemangioendothelioma (EH) of the bone that favourably responded to intravenous pamidronate as a single agent. After 6 years of follow-up, the patient was in complete remisssion. We suggest that use of bisphosphonates should be considered in the treatment of osteolytic EH.
