Key result
CTA reveals the first reported imaging of a rare intracranial epithelioid hemangioendothelioma.
Why the study?
Intracranial epithelioid hemangioendothelioma is a rare central nervous system neoplasm with no prior reports describing computed tomographic angiography findings.
This case provides the first description of computed tomographic angiography findings for intracranial epithelioid hemangioendothelioma.
First CTA description of tentorial EHE; extends sparse imaging data but leaves open diagnostic specificity pending additional cases.
Intracranial epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EH) is a rare neoplasm in the central nervous system. The authors describe a case of EH arising from the tentorium in a 57-year-old woman. A review of the literature showed that this was the first case report of computed tomographic angiography findings of EH.
