  • Title: Alveolar hemorrhage with epithelioid hemangioendothelioma. A previously unreported manifestation of a rare tumor.
    Author: Carter EJ, Bradburne RM, Jhung JW, Ettensohn DB.
    Journal: Am Rev Respir Dis; 1990 Sep; 142(3):700-1. PubMed ID: 2389920.
    Abstract:
    Epithelial hemangioendothelioma (EH), originally termed intravascular sclerosing bronchioloalveolar tumor (IVBAT), is a rare pulmonary vascular neoplasm usually associated with an indolent but slowly progressive clinical course. We describe a patient with EH who presented with alveolar hemorrhage and died within 8 wk. This report extends the clinical spectrum of epithelial hemangioendothelioma to include this aggressive form. EH should be considered in the differential diagnosis of alveolar hemorrhage syndrome.
