“…10 The presentation of IPEH in the salivary gland is relatively rare, with a majority in the parotid gland. 1,7,10 On reviewing the accessible literature on Masson's tumors of salivary gland, only 4 cases were reported to date (Table 1). 1,6,7,10 Of the 5 patients including ours, the age ranged from 18 to 70 years, with a mean age of 41.4 years.…”

“…Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia (IPEH), also known as Masson’s tumor, is a rare, benign endothelial vascular lesion, characterized by reactive proliferation of endothelial cells with papillary growth related to obstructive thrombosis. 1 -5 It was first described by Pierre Masson in 1923 with the term “vegetant intravascular hemangioendothelioma.” 6 -9 Most authors emphasized IPEH may mimic low-grade angiosarcoma as its endothelial papillary proliferation. 1 -8,10 -12 Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia occurs most commonly in fingers, trunk, head, and neck, with a predilection for skin and subcutaneous tissue of the scalp and face but can also develop in any other blood vessel.…”

Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia (IPEH), a rare benign endothelial vascular lesion related to thrombosis, generally develops in fingers, trunk, head, and neck. Nevertheless, it has been rarely reported in the salivary gland. In this article, we report a case of IPEH of the right submandibular gland in a 37-year-old female whose initial impression was sialadenitis secondary to sialolithiasis. To date, our case may be the first well-documented report of IPEH in the submandibular gland. The patient underwent ablation of the submandibular gland, and no evidence of recurrence was found during follow-up.

“…The second type is mixed that arises due to the presence of local alterations due to previous vascular pathology such as hemangioma, pyogenic granuloma, or vascular malformation, tending to be in intramuscular regions. The third, rare type, results from an extravascular organization secondary to a traumainduced hematoma [4].…”

Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia or Masson’s tumor is a rare benign vascular pathology. It mainly affects the lower limbs and is not related to the gender or age of the patients. Evaluation by clinical history and imaging exams can be confused with other soft tissue tumors. The purpose of this article is to describe a case attended at a university hospital in Porto Alegre, Brazil. In the present study, the authors report a case of a 54-year-old male patient with the presence of nodulation on the back of the right foot. After inconclusive biopsy, the treatment of choice was surgical resection of the tumor with free margins. Anatomopathological study of the surgical specimen was compatible with Masson’s tumor. A 6-month follow-up did not show any recurrence of the lesion. With this case, the authors wish to highlight this pathology among the differential diagnoses for soft tissue tumors.
