Vascular lesions are classified according to their tumoral, malformative or reactive origin. Their clinical incidence and their frequency in pathological recruitment are also highly variable, with some lesions being rarer or even exceptional. We report the observation of 2 rare benign vascular tumors of unusual localization.
Epithelioid hemangioma is a benign rare vascular neoplasm. It is defined by the presence of well-formed vascular channels lined by epithelioid endothelial cells. Pathologically, it has a wide morphological spectrum making diagnosis difficult. In some cases, immunoreactivity anti-FOSB is important in differential diagnosis with other malignant forms, namely epithelioid hemangioendothelioma and angiosarcoma. The pathogenesis is controversial; however, several studies argue for a neoplastic origin in 48% of cases by showing a variety of gene fusions dependi.. View More»
