Abstract
Epithelioid hemangioma of bone is a rare vascular neoplasm with a ubiquitous distribution. To date, up to 25% epithelioid hemangioma of bone presents synchronous bone lesions. We report a unique case of epithelioid hemangioma with multifocal metachronous bone lesions without any fatal outcome observed after a long period. Importantly, a strong nuclear expression of FOSB antibody was detected by immunohistochemical analysis. In this case, the pathologic and radiologic findings are also described. We suggest that epithelioid hemangioma can present multifocal metachronous bone lesions without producing a fatal outcome.Entities:
