KENNY, A.G.; SPINA, J.C.  and  GARCIA MONACO, R.D.. Hemangioendotelioma epitelioide hepático: un desafío diagnóstico para el médico radiólogo. Rev. argent. radiol. [online]. 2014, vol.78, n.1, pp.35-41. ISSN 1852-9992.  http://dx.doi.org/10.7811/rarv78n1a07.

We report a case of a patient referred to our institution presenting with 1 year of abdominal pain, associated to the finding of multiple solid liver lesions suggestive of metastases. Diagnosis of hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma was performed after percutaneous liver biopsy. We describe clinical and imaging features of this tumor. Imaging findings are analized, providing a new case of hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma. Since this is a rare entity that must be taken into account when multiple liver lesions are detected, it is important to recognize it and include it in the differential diagnosis of liver metastases.

Keywords : Hepatic epithelioid hemangio endothelioma; Liver tumors; Liver.
