Pulmonary epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (PEH) is a rare neoplasm, largely unresponsive to chemotherapeutic medications, and with varied prognosis. Imaging on computerized tomography may demonstrate perivascular nodules, but diagnosis is ultimately made on biopsy with immunohistochemical analysis. Here we describe a case of PEH in a 14-year-old male with Crohn's disease, which, to our knowledge, has not previously been described in the literature.
肺上皮样血管内皮瘤(PEH)是一种罕见的肿瘤,对化疗药物大多无反应,预后各异。计算机断层扫描成像可能显示血管周围结节,但最终诊断需通过活检及免疫组化分析来确定。在此,我们描述一例14岁患有克罗恩病的男性肺上皮样血管内皮瘤病例,据我们所知,此前文献中尚未有过相关描述。
