  • Title: Neoplastic angioendotheliosis.
    Author: Brew BJ, O'Sullivan DJ, Darveniza P, Selby G, Fryer J, Evans W.
    Journal: Clin Exp Neurol; 1987; 23():119-26. PubMed ID: 3665160.
    Abstract:
    Neoplastic angioendotheliosis is a rare disease in which malignant cells are found within numerous blood vessels throughout the body in the absence of any detectable extravascular primary malignancy. The disorder has a propensity for clinical neurological involvement despite pathological evidence of systemic spread. To date 23 patients with neurological involvement have been described. This report adds a further 3 cases. There was no definite evidence to support the theory that the malignancy arises in endothelial cells; no primary extravascular tumour was found. At present a definite conclusion about the cause of the disease cannot be made.
