Abstract
In 1982, Weiss and Enzinger described a group of soft tissue tumors in adults that they called epithelioid hemangioendothelioma [Cancer 50: 970-981, 1982]. Such tumors have also been found in heart, bone, liver, lung and lymph nodes, and Kepes and Rubinstein described two intracranial examples in adults in 1986 [J. Neuropath. exp. Neurol. 45:319, 1986]. This report documents clinical and pathological features of an epithelioid hemangioendothelioma in the parietal lobe of a 4-year-old boy.
