Pseudomyogenic hemangioendothelioma (PHE) also known as epithelioid sarcoma-like hemangioendothelioma (ES-H) is a vascular lesion of intermediate grade biologically behaving between benign hemangioma and malignant angiosarcoma. We present a 35-year-old male with an unremarkable medical history, who was referred to a sarcoma clinic complaining of right heel pain with equinus deformity and a mass in his right lower limb for 6 months. Biopsy was performed and reported as Pseudomyogenic Hemangioendothelioma. The patient was started on pazopanib with a favorable clinical and radiological response. Long-term follow-up is still needed, however further studies are vital to clarify the role of Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor therapy.
假性肌源性血管内皮瘤(PHE),也称为上皮样肉瘤样血管内皮瘤(ES-H),是一种生物学行为介于良性血管瘤和恶性血管肉瘤之间的中等分级血管病变。我们报告一名35岁男性,既往病史无特殊,因右足跟疼痛伴马蹄足畸形及右下肢肿物6个月转诊至肉瘤诊所。进行了活检,报告为假性肌源性血管内皮瘤。患者开始使用帕唑帕尼治疗,临床和影像学反应良好。然而,仍需要长期随访,进一步的研究对于阐明酪氨酸激酶抑制剂治疗的作用至关重要。
