Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EH) is an uncommon tumor of endothelial origin. It can develop in any tissue and can be multicentric or metastatic. The usual course is a slow progression. Imaging techniques are generally useful in determining the extent of the disease. A case of EH involving bone marrow and mediastinum is described. We discuss the use of FDG PET scanning in EH, showing its use in detecting bone marrow involvement and determining the extent of the disease.
上皮样血管内皮瘤（EH）是一种罕见的内皮源性肿瘤。它可发生于任何组织，可为多中心性或转移性。通常病程进展缓慢。影像学技术一般有助于确定疾病范围。本文描述了1例累及骨髓和纵隔的EH病例。我们讨论了FDG PET扫描在EH中的应用，展示了其在检测骨髓受累及确定疾病范围方面的用途。
