Abstract
Hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma is an extremely rare malignant vascular tumor that is usually found incidentally during computed tomography. It is often misdiagnosed as other hepatic tumors due to its rarity and the lack of typical imaging features, and the final diagnosis requires histopathological examination. We hereby report a 48-year-old woman with hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma.
