  • Title: Kaposiform haemangioendothelioma in an adult: lack of response to topical sirolimus and response to radiotherapy.
    Author: Der Sarkissian SA, Wong XL, Kossard S, Hong A, Sebaratnam DF.
    Journal: Clin Exp Dermatol; 2022 Jan; 47(1):192-193. PubMed ID: 34480811.
    Abstract:
    Kaposiform haemangioendothelioma (KHE) is a rare, primarily paediatric tumour with only a handful of case reports in the adult population. Given the paucity of evidence, this article is important in raising awareness of radiotherapy as a suitable and effective treatment in the adult population with KHE and highlights the potential limitations of topical sirolimus in these tumours.
