Hemangiopericytoma is an uncommon mesenchymal tumor originating from pericytes. We describe the clinical and morphologic features in a case of intrathoracic extrapulmonary giant hemangiopericytoma. The tumor was radically removed, and the microscopy report was benign hemangiopericytoma. Because of the high risk of local recurrence, long-term follow-up is important in such patients.
血管外皮细胞瘤是一种起源于周细胞的罕见间叶组织肿瘤。我们描述了一例胸内肺外巨大血管外皮细胞瘤的临床和形态学特征。该肿瘤被根治性切除，显微镜检查报告为良性血管外皮细胞瘤。由于局部复发风险高，对此类患者进行长期随访很重要。
