In the present report, we describe a case of PEH in a 39-yr-old woman. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were positive for CD34. [pesquisa.bvsalud.org]

The present case, on review and correlation with histomorphology, depicts most of the cytologic features of hepatic EH. [cytojournal.com]

It often presents in infancy with cardiac failure because of extensive arteriovenous shunting within the lesion. [en.wikipedia.org]

• Falling

  Signs and symptoms [ edit ] They have been described as masses that fall between a hemangioma and angiosarcoma. [en.wikipedia.org]

  […] confirmed these findings using electron microscopy and revealed a diffuse cytoplasmic staining of the malignant cells with a factor VIII-related antigen. 8 The recent World Health Organization (WHO 2002) classification describes EHE as lesions that fall [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Thrombosis

  Inflammatory cellular infiltrate, congestion in the adjacent lung parenchyma and fibrin thrombosis are usually not seen. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Liver Mass

  A hepatic hemangioma is a liver mass made of widened (dilated) blood vessels. It is not cancerous. A hepatic hemangioma is the most common type of liver mass that is not caused by cancer. It may be a birth defect. [sultowanigh.ml]

• Subcutaneous Nodule

  nodule. [2] : 601 Kaposiform hemangioendothelioma (also known as "Infantile kaposiform hemangioendothelioma" [3] ) is an uncommon vascular tumor, first described by Niedt, Greco, et al. [en.wikipedia.org]

Therefore, preoperative diagnostic workup is of utmost importance to differentiate it from other primary and metastatic tumors of the liver. [bib.irb.hr]

• Enlargement of the Liver

  Symptoms are rare, however, they may cause pain, nausea, or enlargement of the liver. CT scan or MRI is generally used to diagnose hepatic hemangiomas. Hepatic hemangiomaMultimedia EncyclopediaHealth. [sultowanigh.ml]

Treatment [ edit ] Treatment is varied and depends on the site and extent of tumor involvement, site(s) of metastasis, and specific individual factors. [en.wikipedia.org]

Weiss in 1996 as "spindle cell hemangioma", rather than hemangioendothelioma, due to the excellent prognosis observed in a group of 78 patients. [5] Retiform hemangioendothelioma (also known as a "Hobnail hemangioendothelioma" [3] ) is a low-grade angiosarcoma [en.wikipedia.org]

The clinical signs and the prognosis of this tumor are quite variable. From the present case report, the authors have sought to contribute with literature data. Hepatic Pseudotumor Due To Nodular Fatty Sparing: The. OBJECTIVE. [sultowanigh.ml]

The etiology is still a dilemma. Studies about suggestive hypothesis are ongoing. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Epidemiology [ edit ] It is so rare that only 0.01 percent of the cancer population has it and it affects about 1 person in every 1,000,000 worldwide. [4] Around 20 cases are diagnosed in America every year – the cause is unknown. [5] It is unresponsive [en.wikipedia.org]

Because the lesion may otherwise mimic a hepatic tumor, knowledge of these findings may prevent unnecessary biopsy or inappropriate treatment. Inflammatory pseudotumor of the liver: 13 cases of MRI. [sultowanigh.ml]

When the lesions are small and limited in number, some authors recommend surgical resection or an preventive approach to asymptomatic patients. Successful curative resection achieves good outcomes. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
