Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) is a low-grade malignant vascular neoplasm that can occur anywhere in the body. EHE has a low annual incidence (0.38/106) and prevalence (< 1/106), and primary mediastinal EHE is exceedingly rare. We report a case of EHE in a 53-year-old female which manifested as an incidentally discovered mass in the right paratracheal region. In this report, authors describe the pathological and radiological findings of primary mediastinal EHE invading the superior vena cava in the right paratracheal area.
