Abstract

Hepatic epithelioid haemangioendothelioma (HEHE) is extremely rare in children. We present an adolescent who presented with a scoliosis due to left thoracic pain. Multifocal HEHE was incidentally found during CT scan of the thorax, and confirmed with a multiphase CT scan of the abdomen, biopsy and immunochemistry. Left pleural and pulmonary involvement was suspected and later confirmed with biopsy and histopathological examination. The patient died 1 year after diagnosis. To the best of our knowledge, scoliosis has not previously been reported as the first symptom of EHE.
