Abstract
Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EH) is an uncommon tumor of endothelial origin. It can develop in any tissue and can be multicentric or metastatic. The usual course is a slow progression. Imaging techniques are generally useful in determining the extent of the disease. A case of EH involving bone marrow and mediastinum is described. We discuss the use of FDG PET scanning in EH, showing its use in detecting bone marrow involvement and determining the extent of the disease.Entities:
