“…It has a mortality rate of 13% for soft tissue lesions (9). EHE in the oral cavity is rare and only 26 cases have been reported to date (3,(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19). In many of these cases, the clinical impression was that of a benign lesion including pyogenic granuloma.…”

“…The EH is rare in the head and neck region and even more rare in the oral cavity, with 27 cases described from 1975 to 2008. The EHs are usually treated with surgical removal of primary tumors, research the possibility of metastatic lesions and clinical follow-up of the patient due to risk of recurrence (7). It reported a case of intraoral epithelioid hemangioendothelioma and a literature review is presented focused on clinical-pathological features and immunohistochemistry of the intraoral cases reported in the MEDLINE data base.…”

The epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EH) is an uncommon angiocentric neoplasm of borderline or intermediate malignant potential, between the hemangioma and conventional angiosarcoma. It is characterized by the proliferation of endothelial cells with epithelioid or histiocitóide morphology with vacuolated cytoplasm and occasional eosinophilic spindle cells. Shows potential for local recurrence as well as the ability to metastasize. Rarely affects the oral cavity, it have been described from 1975 until 2008 only 27 oral cases. Morphologically the EHs may be confused with other lesions, from a hemangioma to a squamous cell carcinoma, and thus immunohistochemical analysis is required. This paper reports the clinical and immunohistochemical characteristics of a case of EH in the gingiva of the tooth 35 of a 17 years-old-white-female. We present a review of the clinicopathological and immunohistochemical characteristics of the intraoral epithelioid hemangioendothelioma cases previously reported.

“…In the World Health Organization classification of soft tissue tumors, the EHE is classified as an intermediate-grade tumor. 3 As data have accumulated, the malignant potential of the EHE has become established (12) . Reported mortality rates by anatomic site in patients with an EHE are as follows: lung, 65%; liver, 35% (with an expected 5-year survival rate of approximately 30%); and soft tissue, 13% (2,10) .…”

ascular tumors range from benign hemangiomas to fully malignant angiosarcomas .1-4 Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) are rare vascular tumors of round to polygonal cells with eosinophilic cytoplasm, intracytoplasmic vacuoles and vesicular nuclei. EHEs were first identified by Weiss and Enzinger in 1982 5 as tumors with an indolent course and a potential for recurrence or metastasis. [5][6][7] EHE has been reported in lungs, liver, skin, larynx, lymph nodes, thyroid, stomach, brain and meninges but occurrence in the head and neck is rare. So far, 33 cases involving head and neck region were reported in Eng- We present a 19-year-old male with one week history of an asymptomatic swelling of his right lower lip. Dermatologic examination revealed a 1.5x2.0 cm in diameter, firm-irregular lesion on the mucosal surface of the right lower lip and the presumptive diagnosis was cheilitis glandularis-granulomatosis. He was referred to ENT clinic for biopsy. Histologically, there was an infiltrative tumor composed of epithelioid cells. Histopathological diagnosis was epithelioid hemangioendothelioma. Based on this clinically unexpected diagnosis, he underwent re-excision and a suprahyoid lymph node dissection that showed a small focus of residual tumor but no lymph node metastasis. Three years follow-up showed no recurrence or metastasis.K Ke ey y W Wo or rd ds s: : Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma; head and neck Ö ÖZ ZE ET T Epi te li o id he man ji o en do tel yo ma (EHE) na dir bir tü mör dür.
