Abstract
Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) is an infrequent vascular tumor that has an intermediate prognosis between the prognosis of the angioma and that of the angiosarcoma. Its evolution is characterized by a tendency to recurrence and metastases. EHE has been reported in locations such as: lungs, liver, bone and soft tissues. There are very few reports of cases involving the head and neck region. The occurrence of EHE in the orbital region and/or the eyelid is extremely rare. The authors report a case of EHE in the right upper eyelid. Surgical excision has been performed resulting in a good local control of the disease after a 5-year follow up.

Abstract
Les tumeurs de la veine cave inférieure sont rares, représentées essentiellement par le léiomyosarcome. Elles ont une présentation clinique peu spécifique, cependant, la littérature ne rapporte pas de manifestations hémorragiques. Le diagnostic préopératoire repose sur la tomodensitométrie et l'imagerie par résonance magnétique et la confirmation est histologique. Nous rapportons un cas d'hématome rétro-péritonéal révélant une tumeur de la veine cave inférieure. Le diagnostic a été posé sur des arguments cliniques et radiologiques.

A rare case of intravascular epithelioid hemangioendothelioma of the cephalic vein treated with surgery and postoperative radiation therapy: a case report and review of the literature. J Med Case Rep 2015; 9:91. [PMID: 25924932 PMCID: PMC4437253 DOI: 10.1186/s13256-015-0565-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2014] [Accepted: 03/04/2015] [Indexed: 01/14/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) is a rare endothelial tumor with an intermediate grade of malignancy. Few cases of primary vascular hemangioendothelioma have been described in the literature. Surgery is the treatment of choice, but radiation therapy and chemotherapy should also be considered in particular cases. CASE PRESENTATION We present the case of a 44-year-old Caucasian woman affected by EHE of the cephalic vein, treated by complete surgical removal of the mass and postoperative local radiation therapy. At 5-year follow-up, our patient is alive, with no signs of local or distant relapse and with no late radiation-related effects. CONCLUSIONS Postoperative radiotherapy may play a role in cases in which tumor margins are close or cannot be assessed or when high-risk features are present.
