Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) is a rare condition arising from endothelial cells of the blood vessels. This is a vascular tumor that may occur anywhere throughout the body. This tumor behaves on a spectrum as either a benign tumor or an aggressive sarcoma. The EHE tumor and its management depend on the location of the lesion and accessibility for surgical excision. This case is a rare example of a patient presenting with a maxillary aggressive EHE tumor. This lesion was incidentally found on head CT done for ruling out fractures of the mid-face with incidental findings of an asymptomatic destructive lytic lesion. The treatment of this tumor located in a vital region of the mid-face will be discussed.
上皮样血管内皮瘤（EHE）是一种起源于血管内皮细胞的罕见病症。这是一种可发生于全身任何部位的血管肿瘤。该肿瘤的行为表现介于良性肿瘤和侵袭性肉瘤之间。EHE肿瘤及其治疗方法取决于病变的位置以及手术切除的可达性。本病例是一名上颌部侵袭性EHE肿瘤患者的罕见实例。该病变是在进行头部CT以排除中面部骨折时偶然发现的，同时偶然发现了一个无症状的破坏性溶骨性病变。将讨论位于中面部重要区域的该肿瘤的治疗方法。
