Epithelioid haemangioendothelioma (EHE) is a rare vascular tumour that can occur in a wide variety of anatomical sites including the liver, lungs, skin, bone and is rarely reported in the oral cavity. The condition is classified as a tumour of intermediate malignancy as, in contrast to other types of haemangioendothelioma, EHE can result in distant metastasis and the death of the patient. Due to the minimal number of cases reported of individuals diagnosed with EHE, no definitive data on different treatment options exist and complete excision with follow up and consideration of adjuvant radiotherapy is the universal treatment option. This case report highlights the investigation, diagnosis and treatment of a 25-year-old man who was diagnosed with EHE arising within the mandible. The article also presents the published literature of documented cases of mandibular and maxillary EHE.

IntroductionEpithelioid Hemangioendothelioma (EH) is an uncommon vascular neoplasm (endothelial origin) which can affect any type of tissue. It rarely occurs in head and neck region, and has unpredictable clinical behavior. ObjectiveThe aim is to report a case of EH of unusual location (pterygomaxillary fissure) and histological rarity, andto establish an accurate differential diagnosis of EH and Juvenile Nasoangiofibroma (JNA). Case reportA 19 year-old male with a chief complaint of recurrent epistaxis and an obstruction of the left nasal cavity. The diagnosis of JNA was suggested and surgery with tumor complete resection was the election treatment. However, clinical diagnosis was not confirmed postoperaively, through Immunohistochemistry (IHC). Histopathological findings showed a diagnostic reporting of EH. Tumor had no recurrence within three years after surgery. DiscussionApart from the rarity of the condition, EH varies according to their location in asymptomatic or with few symptoms. The presence of violaceous lesions indicates a huge range of vascular tumors. Thus, IHC has assumed very important for diagnosis confirmation. ConclusionThe localization of EH in perygomaxillary fissure is a rare condition withpoor prognosis. The treatment choice for EH was the complete ressection.Keywords: Epithelioid hemangioendotelioma; Head and neck neoplasms; Pterygomaxillary fissure Citation:
