Retiform hemangioendothelioma is described as a rare variant of low-grade angiosarcoma, characterized by indolent clinical behavior and closely related to Dabska's tumor (DT). Clinically, patients often present with an asymptomatic slow-growing solitary nodular or plaque-like lesion with rare oral involvement. Here, we report a case of a 50-year-old female patient with retiform variety of hemangioendothelioma having maxillary localization with various clinical, radiographical, histopathological, and immunohistological features.
