An intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia of the hand radiologically mimicking a hemangiopericytoma: A case report and literature review
نویسندگان
چکیده
Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia is a rare benign vascular lesion of the skin and subcutaneous tissues, characterized by a reactive proliferation of endothelial cells that can present de novo in normal blood vessels (primary intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia), but it can also develop from a pre-existing vascular process (type II intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia), or it can arise in an extravascular location from a post-traumatic haematoma. The differential diagnosis between intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia and malignant vascular tumours can be challenging, due to the lacking of a specific radiologic description. We present a case of intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia of the hand radiologically mimicking a hemangiopericytoma.

Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia (IPEH) is an uncommon benign vascular disease characterized by endothelial cell proliferation and papillary formation within the lumen of blood vessels arising from an organizing thrombus. The occurrence of this uncommon lesion is about 2% of all vascular tumors. IPEH mostly occurs in the 5th decade of life, and there is no gender or age predilect...

INTRODUCTION Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia is a reactive proliferative lesion of endothelial cells in blood vessels. It typically presents as a painless, reddish purple lesion in the sites affected. The orbit remains an uncommon site of affectation of this relatively common disease. It is noteworthy that this is the first reported case, to the best of our knowledge, of orbital...

متن کاملPapillary endothelial hyperplasia of adrenal: case report.
Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia is a benign and rare intravascular process thought to arise from an organizing thrombus. Involvement of the adrenal gland is extremely rare, with only one case reported in the literature. We report a case of this vascular lesion in the adrenal gland, treated with laparoscopic adrenalectomy.
