Intracranial epithelioid hemangioendothelioma.

INTRODUCTION: Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) is an uncommon soft-tissue vascular neoplasm. Although a well-defined entity outside the neuraxis, its intracranial occurrence is rare. Literature review revealed 35 reported cases till date. CASE REPORT: The authors report a case of intracranial EHE in a 15-year-old girl, who presented with a short history and unusual radiology. Following radical removal, the lesion recurred within 1 month and progressed to terminal stages. This tumor is thought to have an indolent intermediate malignancy potential and such rapid progression has not been reported so far.
