[Primary perivascular epitheloid cell tumour (PEComa) of the liver - is a new entity of the liver tumors?].

Perivascular epitheloid cell tumor (PEComa) is a rare tumor, characterized by dual Expression of smooth muscle and melanocytic markers. Due to the development of diagnostic procedures, we now diagnose PEComa more often. We report about a case of PEComa of the liver as an accidental finding. We analyze the clinical and morphological characteristics of this tumor and compare it with the data of the literature. Management of patients with PEComa is not yet standardized; therefore biopsy with immunhistochemical staining is necessary for the diagnosis. In case of liver tumors which cannot be classified by their morphology on imaging modalities, it is important to think about this rare entity.
