    Author: Diment J, Yurim O, Pappo O.
    Journal: Arch Pathol Lab Med; 2001 Jul; 125(7):931-2. PubMed ID: 11419979.
    Abstract:
    Hepatic infantile hemangioendothelioma (IHE) is a rare benign vascular tumor of the liver found mostly in infancy and early childhood. We describe herein a tumor of the liver, morphologically indistinguishable from IHE, that presented in an adult. The patient is a 56-year-old woman with a history of ductal carcinoma in situ of the left breast and a mass in the liver. The patient underwent resection of the tumor, and after 23 months of follow-up she is alive with no evidence of expansion of the liver tumor.
