We report a rare case of intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia (IPEH) of the oral mucosa. This neoplasm, known as Masson's tumor, is an unusual vascular lesion of proliferating endothelial cells. It is usually confined to the lumen of preexisting vessels or vascular malformations. The principal significance of IPEH is its microscopic resemblance to angiosarcoma and possible misdiagnos...

Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia (IPEH) is a benign lesion of a vascular origin that is caused by excessive proliferation of endothelial cells in blood vessels or vascular malformations. It is a rare entity that can present in any region of the body, but with particular predilection to the head and neck region and the extremities. We also present the results of the English litera...

A 10-year-old female patient presented with a rapidly growing nodular mass lesion on her right frontal area. On skull radiography and computed tomography (CT) imaging, this mass had a well-demarcated punch-out lesion with a transdiploic, exophytic soft tissue mass nodule on the frontal scalp. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging revealed the presence of a 1.5×1.2×1 cm sized calvarial lesion. This le...

Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia (IPEH), or Masson's tumor, is a rare, benign vascular lesion characterized by reactive endothelial proliferation with venous stasis and thrombus. Lesions typically arise in vascular regions of the head and neck or extremities, but involvement of other organ systems has been reported. Clinically, IPEH mimics other benign lesions (hemangiomas) and m...
