Abstract

Pulmonary epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (PEH) is a rare pulmonary neoplasm that was initially described in 1975 as an intravascular bronchioloalveolar tumor. This report presents the case of a patient with multifocal primary pulmonary PEH (11 tumors) in the bilateral lungs. All of the tumors detected in the preoperative computed tomography scan were surgically resected. The patient has been doing well for 9 years after surgery. No tumor recurred for 8 years after surgery until a single recurrent nodule appeared and was thoracoscopically resected.
