Abstract

EH (Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma) is a rare vascular malignant neoplasm. Only 434 cases had been reported until 2006. Symptoms may be nonspecific, but it also can involve hepatic veins resulting in Budd-Chiari syndrome. The main differential diagnosis is cholangiocarcinoma, sometimes only distinguishable through immunohistochemistry study. We report a case of a young woman diagnosed with hepatic EH and listed for liver transplantation.
