    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To describe the radiological findings of long-standing pulmonary epithelioid hemangioendothelioma. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Serial radiography and CT, including high-resolution CT scans, were performed in two patients. RESULTS: The tumor has remained radiographically stationary for 10 and 20 years, respectively. On CT, both patients showed multiple calcified pulmonary nodules, up to 1 cm in size with a perivascular distribution. Interstitial involvement was seen in one case. CONCLUSION: Calcification and perivascular location of the tumoral nodules were characteristic CT findings in our cases.
