Infantile hemangioendothelioma is a rare benign vascular tumor of the liver. We report a case of hepatic hemangioendothelioma in an 8- month-old female infant who presented with hepatomegaly and respiratory distress, which was successfully treated with oral prednisolone for six months.

Spindle cell neoplasms are defined as neoplasms that consist of spindle-shaped cells in the histopathology. Spindle cell neoplasms can affect the oral cavity. In the oral cavity, the origin of the spindle cell neoplasms may be traced to epithelial, mesenchymal and odontogenic components. This article aims to review the spindle cell neoplasms of the oral cavity with emphasis on histopathology.

A rare presentation of an oral hemangioma in a 3month-old child is reported. The lesion was gray, began central in bone, and expanded rapidly into the oral cavity. The hemangioma is a tumor of mesenchymal origin. It is found occasionally in the oral cavity. The cellular hemangioma is one of a family of tumors characterized by the formation of vascular tubes of endothelial cells. The tumors are ...

This study aimed to investigate the clinicopathological characteristics, differential diagnosis and prognosis of pulmonary epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (PEH). PEH is a rare low-grade malignant vascular tumor. The cause of PEH remains unclear. Patient prognosis is unpredictable, with life expectancy ranging from 1 to 15 years due to the fact that estrogenic receptors behave inconsistently wi...

Pulmonary epithelial hemangioendothelioma is a rare low to intermediate malignant vascular tumor originating from vascular endothelial cells. The therapy for this disease, if possible, is surgical resection. However, there is no standard treatment for patients with multiple unresectable lesions. We present the case of a 42-year-old woman treated with a natural clinical course of hemangioendothe...

epithelioid hemangioendothelioma is a vascular tumor with an intermediate malignant potential. this tumor is very rare in the lung parenchyma, and most of the previously reported cases have been asymptomatic. there is no standard therapy for this tumor and prognosis in the previous reports has been variable. herein we report our experience with a 60-year-old woman presenting with hemoptysis and...

Epitheloid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) is an uncommon angiocentric neoplasm of intermediate malignant potential. This tumor is frequently seen in the lungs and liver, but its presentation in the oral cavity is rare. In the oral cavity, gingival region is the common sites of occurrence. We report a rare case of epitheloid hemangioendothelioma in a 48-year-old male, presenting as a growth in the u...

Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma is an uncommon malignant vascular tumour usually involving soft tissue and rarely only skin. It is considered to be a borderline neoplasm between angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia and an epithelioid angiosarcoma and is mostly found in adults with few cases reported in children. We herein report a case of ulcerated cutaneous epithelioid hemangioendothel...

We report the case of a rare solitary small nodular form of malignant hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma in a patient followed by computed tomography and gadoxetic acid (Gd-EOB-DTPA)-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging with histological analysis. This case showed early peripheral septal and nodular enhancement and delayed centripetal enhancing pattern with capsular retraction, mimicking p...

Mitotic spindle position defines the cell-cleavage site during cytokinesis. However, the mechanisms that control spindle positioning to generate equal-sized daughter cells remain poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that two mechanisms act coordinately to center the spindle during anaphase in symmetrically dividing human cells. First, the spindle is positioned directly by the microtubule-bas...
