Abstract EN
With the exception of leiomyomas, soft tissue tumors of the uterine corpus are not common.
This is particularly true for vascular neoplasms, with the epithelioid hemangioendothelioma being a curiosity; not more than twenty-two cases of malignant hemangioendotheliomas have been reported in the literature so far, all of which were high-grade hemangioendotheliomas (hemangiosarcomas).
We present herewith a unique case of low-grade epithelioid hemangioendothelioma of the uterus in a pregnant woman aged 29 years.
The clinical, histological, and immunohistochemical characteristics of this entity, together with its differential diagnosis, are discussed.
