Multifocal Epitheloid Hemangioendothelioma: A Case Report

Abstract

Epitheloid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) is a rare vascular tumor with malignant biological behavior. It arises from vascular endothelial cells, usually within soft tissues, and can occur in almost all locations, but tumor can be found in liver, lungs, bone and skin. It is considered to be a low or borderline malignant tumor with, usually, slow progression, but aggressive forms have been described. We present a 24 year-old female case of multifocal epitheloid hemangioendothelioma of the soft tissue with its clinical, radiological and histopathological findings [Cukurova Med J 2014; 39(2.000): 383-386]
